Garage men say that 75 per cent of engine troubles are due to
faulty lubrication. You literally force your car into the repair
shop you shorten its life and lessen its value by fully one-third
when you neglect this vital matter of lubrication.
Here are three proved ways to help
you avoid this loss
1 Clean the crank case every
500 to 1000 miles and when
changing from one brand of
motor oil to another.
!0 Flush the crank case with
fresh lubricating oil never
with kerosene or with so-called
"flushing" oils.
O Lubricate with the correct
grade of Cycol the perfect
ed motor oil, as shown on the
Cycol Recommendation Chart.
,THe superiority of Cycol is due to its freedom from destructive "sulpho" compounds. These
impurities are removed and Cycol is perfected by the new Hexeon Process, used only by us.
,Thus Cycol does not break down nor thin out rapidly under engine heat. It maintains an
unbroken lubricating film between moving parts. It prevents many serious motor troubles,
pnd early, engine depreciation,
