It has long been our aim to produce just such a car. But due to the greater cost of building the superior sleeve-valve motor, it isonly today—after fourteen years of experiment and progress—that we have reached our goal. Thousands more may nowdrive theWillys-Knight, the car which is praised so enthusiastically by its housands more may now enjoy HIGH COMPRESSION WITH ANY GAS! The simplicity of the parented Willys-Knight engine is responsible for its remarkable effi- ciency. Two metal sleeves in each cylinder move smoothly, silently up and down, one within the other, in a protective film of oil They sdmit and expel gas through openings in their sides. There is no complicated valve mechanism with tappets no valve springs to weaken, or to collect carbon, and thereby destroy compression. The spherical cylinder head of the Willys- Knight directs the full force of the explosion straight downward againat the piston, making the most efficient use of the highly compressed gus. Such carbon as forms servesonly tosealthe chamber even more perfectly. As a result, the Willys-Knightengine gives high uniform com- pression at all times, at all speeds—and ewithany gas. And it is the only type of engine that con- moother and quieter with use. STERRETT & FLEMING, Home of the Gold Seal Used Cars Champlain St. at Kalorama Rd.
