A friend of mine in Canada tried to use similar advice. Not realizing that 
paraffin is the UK word for kerosene, he melted some paraffin (in USA and 
Canada, a petroleum-based wax) and used it in his carburetors and ruined them 
forever. No matter how much he heated them and tried to use compressed air to 
blow them out, they were never the same after that.
