P roof T hat Zerolene Is
a B etter O il
The function o f a lubricant is to reduce friction
and thus increase the effective power o f the
engine The best proof that Zerolene does this
to a superlative degree is found in the fact that
a car lubricated -with Zerolene deityers about y l
more gasoline mileage than 'when other oils are used.
One good test of the purity and stability of
a motor oil is the amount of carbon it forms.
Zerolene forms less carbon than any other motor
oil known to us. For this reason the Zerolene-
lubricated automobile may be driven from
15X to 50» farther without having the valves
ground or the cylinders rebored
