I FIRST IN THE UNITED STATES TO OFFER A SOLVENT-REFINED MOTOR OIL-CYC 0L Just as Associated led the way in gasoline improvements so it has in motor oil. The progress record shows Associated gasolines were: FIRST with premium Ethyl. FIRST to be equi-fractionated. FIRST to be always climatically correct. FIRST with Aero-type performance. FIRST with Tetraethyl at no extra cost. Progress that never ceases keeps FLYING A the Pacemaker of gasolines. The same manufacturing policy makes New Cycol the Pacemaker of motor oils. No motor oil, regardless of price, gives your motor better protection than solvent-refined Cycol. No motor oil offers less oil-drag. New Cycol releases new power,' increases speed and gasoline mileage. HERE'S WHY- 1. NEW CYCOL IS TOUGH. It takes 20 quarts of the original, selected, wax free, lubricating crude to make one quart of Cycol. It's concentrated, the heart cut. Cycol's protective film stands up under any driving condition. 2. NEW CYCOL IS SAFE. Cycol's solvent-refining removes more impurities than any other process. Cycol is all lubricant. Compounds that drag down power and waste gasoline or form sludge and hard carbon are out. 3. NEW CYCOL IS LIVELY. Cycol flows instantly, penetrates quickly to every moving part. That's because Cycol's double vacuum-distillation selects fine lubricating stocks at lower temperatures, avoiding heat injury.
