Those two tank systems were for gasoline [small tank] and kereo. They were in use before WW2 as can be attested by the fact that very few new tractors were produced during the war and a lot of much older tractors have the dual fuel option.

It was used in older, low compression, engines but not much after the mid 1920's.
