A poor cold test oil will not lubricate
your motor in cold weather. It congeals
in the oil reservoir and is not responsive
to the action of the pump, therefore
while your engine is warming up it is
running practically without any lubrica
tion. The result: worn bearings,
scored cylinder walls, and drain on the
batteries.
Zerolene for Winter Lubrication
Zerolene No. 1, No. 3 and No. 5
flow freely at zero, so that the en
gine bearings get oil even when
the motor is cold. The correct body
of Zerolene will make starting
much easier on your battery, elim
inate the danger of burnt outbear
ings and noticeably increase the
power and responsiveness of your
engine. Consult the recommendr
ations for winter lubrication as
shown in the Zerolene Correct
Lubrication Chart
