THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, FRIDAY, JUNE 11, 1926. WET or DRY? sy s The new Texaco is a “dry gas.” Petroleum engineers have been trying for years to perfect a motor gasoline which would vaporize to a dry gas under engine conditions and overcome the bad effects of a wet mixture. The new Texaco forms a dry gas at a temperature much lower than others on the market. A wet gas, as it would appear in the engine manifold, is a mixture of gasoline vapor and fine drops of liquid gaso- line. It is the cause of unequal cylinder distribution and excessive crankcase dslution, and the result of Aigh “‘end point’’ and low volatility. 4 wez gas chokes power. Liquid drops separate from the mixture at every bend of the mani- fold, and following the straightest path, concentrate at the end cylinders. That is why the spark plugs of the end cylinders are fouled more frequently than the others. A dry gas, no matter how greatly magnified, is abso- lutely invisible—a perfect mixture of vapor and air. Dry gas conserves power. It equalizes cylinder distribution and reduces crankcase dilution to a minimum, and is the result of /ow end point and /sg4 volatility. A New Low Boiling Point which means . An Easier Start A New Low End Point which means which means Less Crankcase Dilution The new and better Texaco, with its new low boiling point and low end point, its higher volatility and bal- anced distillation range, now provides an entrely new motor fuel—a dry gas of unegualled qualities. The result is a far better manifold distribution, which permits a leaner carburetor setting, and means no¥ooded cylinders, less crankcase dilution, easier starting, max- imum acceleration and more mileage. Start today with a stop at the pump displaying the Texaco Red Star and Green T. Yod don’t have to ask for the new Texaco—it’s there at the regular place from the regular pump. And there, too, you can get the clean, clear, golden Texaco Motor Oil, famed for its lubricating value and freedom from carbon formation. A New Volatile Range Quicker Pick-up THE TEXAS COMPANY, U. S.
