Dnameter tnd road test of Zelnieker Ever-T$te Piston
Rings in Ford Engine by Thos. A. Edison engineers.
this
Edison's, engineer says
"With Zelnieker
Ever-Tyte Piston Rings
the following improve
ments in engine .were
shown over the old ring:
12 more power
25 more compression
12 less gasoline used
35 less carbon deposit
10 less wall friction."
Thc Zelnieker Ever-Tyte
Piston Rings have been tested
on a block dynameter and on
the road fcr 2300 miles in a
Ford car and have proved satis
factory in every respect. I
reccmrnend them very highly
to the trads in general."
H. W. Almquist, Automotive
Engineer, Thos- A. Edison, Inc.
The remarkable standing of the
Zelnieker Ever-Tyte Ring among
mechanical engineers is due to
its eight years record in every
type and size of engine . under
every conceivable condition.
Engineers recognize it as the
only ring whose construction
has made practical the use of
"three point expansion."
