CASTROLLO
UPPER CYLINDER LUBRICATION.
Castrollo
In practically every car, new and old, 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 Abecomes worn and scored, rings work loose, and valves stems are apt to stick. An upper cylinder lubricant is necessary for perfect lubrication and Messrs. Wakefield, after exhaustivo tests, have produced Castrollo. This oil gets just where you want--the, top end of the cylinders, piston rings, valves and valve stems. reduces the formation of carbon, since the walls of the combustion chamber are always covered with a film of oil: while such carbon as is deposited is easier to remove. Castrollo reaches parts of the engine that cannot be effectively lubricated from the sump. Some motorists add ordinary lubricating oil to the petrol, but this has been via the Effective lubrication found unsuitable. carburetter necessitates the use of oil specially blended for the purpose such as Castrollo. Kaye Don and other exports realise the value of Castrollo. A quart tin costs $5 and contains sufficient oll to treat 160 gallons of fuel which is less than four cents a gallon of fuel.
