It maintains a protective film even when the motor begins to get very warm. This cuts clown friction and thereby makes the motor's work ea'ier. And this, in turn, prevents overheating. Strange as it may seem, the right kind of oil to keep your motor cool, is the kind that has remarka'.ile ability to stand up under heat. V1CO is that oil. VICO docs not ihin down readily. It will not "break" its film or burn, even under the most intense heat of the hardest, fastest driving of emergencies. It is. therefore, safest to use if ordinary driving as well as for strenuous driving. A grade for every car light, medium, heavy, cxtcu-hcucy, super-heavy all one quality.
