But the newer engines could never stand such carbon deposits. Some o f them have only the thickness o f a knife blade between piston and cylinder head— no room at all for carbon.

The carbon that builds up in your motor comes from burned oil. And it is a strange fact that often the highest priced lubricants will give you large quantities o f gritty, hard carbon. In spite o f all this it is easy now to avoid car bon-forming oils. For science has perfected one oil that is vitally different. Only a little soft soot Shell Motor Oil, the result o f a new refining proc ess, forms less th a n o n e-th ird the carbon o f even the co stlies t oils; no hard carbon, only a little soot that blows easily away through the exhaust. Its lubricant value is far greater than old type oils. Careful refining leaves all its “ body” intact ready to resist even the most violent changes in temperature. Insist on Shell Motor Oil every time you buy. It is almost a necessity in today’s motors. W. R.
