THE EVENING BSTAR, WASHINGTON, ‘D. T, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1926. WET GAS fouled plugs DRY GAS clean plugs ‘Why is it that the end plugs are so often fouled ? A wet gas as it would appeer in the manifold, is a mixture of gasoline vapor with minute globules of liquid gasoline which form a wet film at the manifold bends and enrich cer- tain cylinders at the expense of others. A dry gas, the mew Texaoo, vaporizes at a lower tempera- ture than others on the mar- ket and forms a perfect dry motor fuel which distributes evenly and gives a smooth flow of powerto everycylinder. & HE end cylinders of the average motor car with the average gasoline receive too rich a mixture It is due to wet gas. Liquid drops of gaso- line separate from the mixture at every bend of the manifold and concentrate at the end cylinders. That is why the spark plugs of the end cylinders are fouled more frequently than the others. It is the visible evidence of a wet gas. Wet gas means imperfect combustion, a loss of power, an excess of deadly carbon monoxide in the exhaustgases and free carbon in the cylinders. The new Texaco forms adry gasin the mani- fold. It frees your motor from the evils of end-cylinder enrichment and provides an even flow of fuel and power to every cylinder. Engineers have long tried to produce this ideal gasoline. The Texas Company with its new Holmes-Manley process has succeeded. The. results:—Better combustion and more power. Maximum acceleration without flooding. A quicker start. Less crankcase dilution and no fouling of spark plugs. Carburetor adjustment is not essential— you will get better results in any event, but still better with the lean mixture that the »ew and Jerter Texaco makes possible. And you will notice the gain in mileage, the better hill work and freedom from knock- ing. The #zew Texaco has exceptional anti- knock qualities—attained without the addition of dopes or poisons.
