chased a new six and officials of

get the old Willys-Knight for a

refused to part with the car, saying-
"That old bus just ftaturally
won't break down, for it's as sate

Intends to keep the Willys-Knight
In service until It refuses to func

f Ever Bince its introduction to
the American motoring public the
four-cylinder Willys-Kiiight has
established a precedent in value
and quality which Is the more re

Open models, except sport cars,

The addition of air cleaner, oil
filter and gasoline strainer is in
harmony with the sealed chassis
long featured by Buick. These
three units have no moving parts
to require adjustment, require no
power and are thoroughly auto
matic. They only require occas
ional cleaning to remove the dirt
and grime gathered from the air
fuel and oil.
ine air cieaner operates cen
trifugally on the same principal as
a cream separator. An ingenious
arrangement In the design gives
the air a whirling motion as it en
ters. : This throws the heavy par
ticles outward. Without the clean
er this dirt much of which was
abrasive character, would have
been drawn Into the engine cylin
ders to mix with the oil and form
a harsh grinding compound.
! The oil filter has an area of 4ao
square Inches of cleansing mesh
and cotton fabric. At a speed of
20 miles an hour the entire oil sup
ply Is cleaned every five minutes.
Should the cleaner become clog
ged for any reason, the automatic
by-pass continues the free circu
lation of oil around the cleaner.
So successfully does the oil filter
work that an analysis of the oil In
10 test cars after they had oper
ated on roads for 1000 miles each,
without changing oil, ihowed only
14-100 of 1 per cent of abrasive
sediment in the lubricapt.
The gas strainer is placed under
the vacuum tank and prevents any
dirt or water in the gasoline enter
ing the carburetor to clog the jets
or stop the gas flow. These for
eign substances are trapped by a
line copper gauge screen.
A six-cylinder ralve-in-the-head
engine of 75 horse power, a speed
of 75 miles an hour and 178 foot
pounds engine torque at 1500 rev
olutions per minute that de
scribes the power plant of the Mas
ter Six Better Buick. An increase
In power has been made in the en
gine of the standard six, j which
generates 60 horse power, has a
speed of 70 miles an hour and 140
foot pounds engine torque. This
power has been developed with no
increase in compression and only
8 per cent Increase In the bore.
Improved carburetlon and mani
folding are partly responsible for
the; additional horse power and en
gine torque. The carburetor .has
been slightly enlarged, and a
change in the manifold has result
ed in better distribution of gas to
the cylinders. These, together
with the automatic beat control to
the carburetor has resulted In an
engine that is In a class by itself
for power, efficiency and economy.
This considerable increase in en
gine power necessitated many oth
er changes so that every part of
the entire car would be in perfect
balance.
