Zerolene "F" for Fords gets to all the bear ings requiring lubrication especially the wrist-pin bearings end the upper half of the cylinder walls that ore frequently oil-starved when an unsuitable lubricant is used. It deposits a minimum of carbon, and be cause it lubricates better, enables the engine to develop a considerable margin of power over and above what you're accustomed to expect from your Ford. And it costs not more, but less than most of the special Ford oils now on the market. A Ford is an A-l transportation invest ment. Protect your investment by proper lubrication.
