Then believe mc it pul that NaslW mine in the Rolls Rnycc class because outside of a few mud holes in the timber I made this entire trip on the high. In two weeks I did it again and made the Singley hill on high from low grar as some cows blocked the way at the foot. I never did that before. Then I watched the oil and made 3 (72 miles on two quarts add d and hadn t h.id my valves ground in 1 5,000 miles. (Just had them ground and refilled the crank case with Cas torluhe again.) I co. ci about 2800 miles a month making out of Eureka to close to Grant's Pass, Oregon, and this is no cream pulf territory as far as roads arc concerned. A lot of wiscnheinicr knockers told me the castor oil in Caslorlubc would gum up the engine, and almost had me brlicvinrj it. Well, it hasn't gum med it yet and I've used it all winter and the engine starts easier than when I used oil.
