First, you find that your gasoline bills are lower. Repeated tests in our labora- « tories have demonstrated that, other fiac- tors being equal, cars lubricated with Zerolene make about 5% better gasoline mileage than cars lubricated with other © ils, Second, your car goes from 25% 50% farther before you need to grind valves or remove carbon. This fact, too, ? is fully substantiated by numerous dem- onstrations in our laboratories, Made from the Best Crude So Far Discovered Zerolene is made from the best crude so far discovered for the manufacture of Crude, which has exceptional heat-resist- ing qualities that are well known to lubri- cating engineers. This company collects that crude and by means ofits dual gath- ering and pipe line system transports it separately to the refinery. There it is refined by our exclusive high- vacuum process, which preserves in Zero- lene all the superior qualities of this selected crude. Because of the special characteristics, of the crude from which it is made, Zero- lene not only deposits a smaller amount of carbon, but this minimum deposit is soft, flaky and relatively harmless aS com- “pared to the hard, flinty deposit left by. many other oils. A Perfect Piston-Seal at All Running Speeds The reason a car lubricated with Zero- lene delivers better gasoline mileage is. that the engine is continuously better lu- bricated. Zerolene follows closely all the changit.g bearing clearances of the engine, _ due to varying degrees of temperature, so! that full lubrication and a perfect piston- seal are constantly maintained, In addi tion, Zerolene because of special charac- ° teristics of the Naphthenic Base Crude,’ from which it is made, absorbs less gaso- : line from the combustion chambers and consequently has a longer lubricating life. These facts have been fully established by careful laboratory experiment. They are further supported by the experience of a majority of Pacific Coast motorists, who use Zerolene regularly. Insist on Zerolene—even if it does cost less. Consult our Correct Lubrication Ohart to determine the proper grade for your car, STANDARD OIL COMPANY \( CALIFORNIA) ;
