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.
