• • How to tell joy sure —what oil your car needs No. M in the series Perhaps you own a Maxwell If you don’t own’a Maxwell, cutjthis out and hand it to a friend who does The late model Maxwell engines are designed with force feed lubricating systems in which oi! is forced under pressure to the three main bcarmgs. Holes drilled in the crankshaft carry the oil under pressure from the main bearings to the connecting rod bearings. The other moving parts are lubricated by the oil mist which is created when the oil is forced out through the close ' , clearances at the ends of the connecting rod bearings. The oil circulating pump is of the impeller type and is located at the camshaft level, drawing its supply through a pipe connecting with a strainer in the oil reservoir. Aluminum pistons of the constant clearance type arc employed. The skirt or bearing part of this type of piston is slotted on one side to provide for expansion under heat and therefore permits ( the use of close clearances. In addition, horizontal slots are cut through the piston below the lower ring to permit the free return of oil from the cylinder walls. With the effective control of the oil supply which is secured by this oil return provision on the pistons, the possibility of carbon formation is minimized. In addition, the characteristics of aluminum as a piston material tend to prevent the fuel knock which often occurs when carbon deposits accumulate. Where natural circulation of the cooling water (thermo-syphon aystern) is employed as in the Maxwell design, it is desirable to . use in warm weather an oil which is suitable for fairly high operating temperatures. Such an oil will be thoroughly atomized and distributed by the Maxwell lubricating system under the conditions of summer operation. To assure circulation of the lubricating oil in cold weather, the use of an oil which flows freely at low temperatures is necessary because of the elevated location of the oil pump with its long connection to the oil reservoir. To meet correctly these and other important lubrication features of the Maxwell design, we recommend for the 1922 and 1923 f models, the use of Gargoyle Mobiloil “A” in summer and Gargoyle Mobiloil Arctic in winter. For the 1921 and earlier models, Gargoyle Mobiloil Arctic should be used both summer and winter. next friday, we will teH you about die I— Correct Lubrication of your M < •vS Fori.w.Khfeto.
