The gasoline supplied nowadays is very heavy compared with that of a few years ago, and requires considerable heat and a very efficient carbure- tor to vaporize it. When the engine is cold, the choke is generally used to assist in starting, and the gasoline passing into the cylinders is only par- tially vaporized, and is not broken up finc enough to form a guick-burning mixture. The result is that a certain amount of liquid gasoline is left on the walls of the cylinders, and is forced down into the crankcase on the compression stroke. This gasoline mixes with the oil, further diluting it. When the roads are dry, a quantity of dust and grit is drawn down into the crankcase, and this mixed with the water, gasaline arid oil, forms a slimy sludge. This mixture is naturally a very poor lubricant, and if allowed to remain in the crankease will cause rapid wear in all bearings and cylinder walls, soon making the engine very noisy and necessitating an overhauling in a short time. A rough test that will give you a good idea of the condition of the oil in the crankcase, is to drain off a sample and rub it between the finger and thumb, then dip your fingers into some fresh oil and test in the same way. The old oil will have no body, and will feel “dry” and thin, while the new oil will have a smooth velvety feel. Another test is to draw off some of the oil from the crankcase into a clear bottle, and let stand for a day. When oil is settled you will notice the gasoline comes to the top, the oil remains in the center and the water and sediment drops to the bottom of the bottle You will now realize that if you are going to keep your engine in first summer, it will be absolutely necessary that you drain 500 miles. Like everything else, there is a right and bout this job, so next weck I will tell you how to do it. ‘old +; l) TESTING LUBRICATING OIL FUE SAE OF CAN OL SET MEIN LINGER AND Thora AMO NOTE DEFERENCE WW FELL GNI Your Family Needs This Car— The Oldsmobile Six Sedan is easy to handle and easy to park.
