HE average motorist feels safe

is mistaken.
Every time you use the choke you dilute
your oil. Every piston stroke draws in road
dust. A dilution with 5 percent of gasoline
lowers the lubricating efficiency of oil fully
15 percent. After five hundred miles oper
ation the dilution averages more than this.
