UPPER CYLINDER LUBRICATION.
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 becomes worn and acored, rings work loose, and valves stems are upt to stick. An upper cylinder Iubricant is necessary for perfect lubrication and Messrs. Wakefield, after exhaustive tests, have produced Cnstrollo. This oil gets just where you want-the top ond of the cylinders, piston rings, valves and valvo stems. Castrollo reduces the formation of carbon, since, -the walls of the combustion chamber are always covered with a film of of: while such carben as is deposited is easier to remove. Castrollo reaches parts of the engine that cannot be effectively lubricated from the sump, Some motorista add ordinary lubricating oil to the petrol, but this has been found unsuitable. Effectivo lubrication via the carburetter necessitates the use of oil specially blended for the purpose such as Castrollo: Kaye Don and other experts realise the value of Castrollo. A quart tin costs $6 and contains sufficient oll to treat 160 gallons of fual which le less than four cents a gallon of fuel.
