'welsh' is the definition.

'promise to move car from the garage?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'move' could be 'back' (backing is a kind of moving) and 'back' is found within the answer.
'car' could be 't' and 't' is found within the answer.
'from' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is located in the answer.
A single letter 'u' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'on' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
