Thanks! Then I can avoid the variable labels at all, if I want, by 
using backticks:

 plot( 
   ts.union(` ` = gasolina.eq, `  ` = PIBmensPred, `   ` =
   PIBgrowthmens), main = "Gasolina eq. con crecimiento Economico",
   xlab = "Tiempo" )


However, with plot.type="s", whatever I do, I get the complete x 
argument as y-label, no way to avoid it. Any solution (apart from 
hacking the code, which I am about to do)?
