This is the common writing on the TATA trucks in India. TATA used this as an advertising media for the detergent soap named "OK" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.229.222.11 ( talk) 22:53, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
My own questioning of this in the 1960s was that the "On Kerosene" was abbreviated to "OK" purely to warn refuellers to use kerosene and not something else such as diesel or gasoline.
