■■■ —- —— — t —- How to tell joy sure —what oil your car needs i „ 2 . , . I !' No. in the series | ; Perhaps you own S i a Buick f * If you don’t own a Buick, cut this out and hand it to a friend who does I Your Buick engine, because of its large reserve horsepower and efficient cooling-system, operates at comparatively low temperatures. With Buick valve-in-head construction the cooling • area of the combustion chambers is relatively small. This, together with compression pressure of 75 lbs. makes engine sensitive to any appreciable carbon deposits, particularly in view of the present day fuels. Where excessive carbon deposits exist, “pinging” or knocking results. To minimize carbon deposits under these conditions, your engine requires a well refined, clean burning oil which will be thoroughly distributed by the lubricating system. , - . For all Buick models (except 1923) use Gargoyle Mobilod Arctic both summer and winter. The 1923 Buick engine differs fiom previous models, in so far as lubrication is concerned. The splash troughs are covered, leaving a slot through which the splash < dipper passes to project the lubricant. This baffled splash trough design appreciably reduces the quantity of oil i distributed so that the lubricating oil will not splash to 1 the cylinders in excess quantities or reach the combustion e chambers too freely. The two center crankshaft bearings are supplied with oil under pressure. These changes in the 1923 Buick construction permit the use in summer of an oil heavier in body and richer in character than heretofore without the possibility of objectionable carbon accumulations. - Hence, for the 1923 Buick, Gargoyle Mobiloil “A” . in summer and Gargoyle Mobiloil Arctic in winter will ' insure correct lubrication. 1 — -, next triday I we will tell you about the Correct Lubrication of your "A B 4 • Ford.
