If the combustion chamber is sealed tight the explosion acts with full force on the piston head. But unless the combustion chamber is kept tightly sealed, part of each explosion escapes. The result is weakened power, and wasted gasoline, Right here sealing the pis- ton rings comes im as an im- portant factor, Only one thing can prevent escape of power past the piston rin That is & proper piston ring seal, Your lubricating oil must provide this seal. But piston clearances vary in different types of motors—from .oo2 of an inch to .oro of an inch. Different motors therefore de- mand oils of different body. Today thousands of cars are wasting power and gasoline with every piston stroke— simply because their Lubricating I does not properly seal the ‘on rings. Compression is lost. Part of each explosion escapes past the piston rings. his power-loss means waste of gasoline on level roads, It means also lessened power on the hills, Tn the chart on the right you will find the correct grade of Gargoyle Mobiloils for your ear. Among the many impor- *Mention the Geogriphic—tTt identifies you."* tant factors entering into: the deter- mination of the correct grade, the piston clearance in your motor was given careful consideration. The oil specified will give your cngine a proper piston ring seal, If your car is not listed, a copy of our complete Lubricating Chart will be sent you on request. Remember—a proper piston ring: seal means more power on the hills—more mileage from your gasoline, An Economical Demonstration It will probably cost you less than a dollar to fill your crank case with the core rect grade of Gargoyle Mobiloils.
