No matter how carefully piston rinps are
fitted, or how finely the carburetor is ad
justed, gasoline vapors leak past the
piston rings. Besides this, oil is contam
inated by hard particles of road dust
drawn in through the carburetor and the
breather tubes. After 500 miles of opera
tion, crank-case oil is becoming a grind
ing solution. With such oil rapid wear
and loss of power are certain.
Adjust the carburetor carefully. L'se the
choke sparingly. Replace worn piston
rings. Flush out all old oil and refill with
Polar inr aflrr every 500 miles of operation.
Always use the grade of Polarine best
suited to your motor.
This assures protective lubrication and
operating economy. You gain many times
the cost of the additional oil in greater
power and bigger mileage from gasoline,
and in smaller repair bills.
Look for this sign. Consult the Polarine
Chart. Buy the grade recommended a
grade tosuil every car light, medium, me
