In practically every car, new and ohl, there' is a tendency for rapidly moving parts at the top of the cylinder to run rather too dry with the result that the cylinder wall becomes worn and scored, rings work loose, and valves вtems are apt to stick. An upper cylinder lubricant is necessary for perfect lubrication and Messrs. Wakefield, aftor exhaustiva toate, have produced Castrollo. This oll gets just where you want the top. end of the cylinders, piston rings, valves and valve stems. Castrollo reduces the formation of carbon, since the walls of the combustion chamber are always covered with a alm of oil: while such carbon as is deposited in cusler to remove. Castrollo reaches parts of the engine that cannot be effectively lubricated from the sump. Somo motorista add ordinary lubricating oil to the petrol, but this has been found unsuitable. Effective lubrication via the carburetter necessitates the use of oil specially blonded for the purpose such as Castrollo. Kaya Don and other experts realise the value of Castrollo.
