  I believe there is a difference in English/U.S. terminology
 here. Like gasoline/petrol... British have a liquid fuel much
 the same as our kerosene which is called paraffin oil... not
 the solid wax paraffin as we know it.
     I had much the same problems when I purchased my first
 English auto, a Singer 9 roadster... :)
