They talk of speed , and power and efficiency. Truthfully, too, because modern engines are marvelously built. Buiclti are not only new in body tyle they have bettered their motor a well. 1 But today' motors have no room for carbon deposits. The car makers have thrown the responsi bility where it belongs squarely on the refiner of motor oils! No more big inefficient engine, with space fora quarter inch layer of coke-carbon. No more expen sive carbon scraping for owners to worry about provided they choose their oil wisely. Not all oila can qualify. Many of them are good enough lubricant but have a tendency to form lurgo quantities of bard carbon, How ever, there is one oil that actually forms only 13 to 15 a much carbon a even the costliest oil you can buy. It i Shell Motor Oil. He little carbon it doe form is only a toft soot that blowaeaulyawayUirough the exhaust. It save you the knocking, en gine drain and valve trouble which carbon forming oils cause. No gritty particle of carbon are left to chafe bearing and cylinder wall.
