FAVOR WESTERN CRUDE

An article in the National Petro-
leum News dealing with oil tests
made by car manufacturers, says,
regarding tests by the Packard COM
pany:
A year ago this company made
an exhaustive test of motor oils.
This test consisted in taking six
new motors and using in each care
fully measured quantity of one Of
the six standard motor oils then on
the market. The oils were carefully
analyzed before they were placed in
the motors. The motors were then
started running under pressure
equal to an average load and allowed
to run for a period of twelve hours.
Every hour the oil was tested for
temperature, viScoSity, flash and fire
test and sealing quality.
At the end of the twelve hours
the oil was again analyzed and the
motors were torn down and examined
for carbon deposit.
Assistant Engineer Hunt says he
is inclined to favor oil made of
Western asphalt base crude, rather
than oil of Eastern paraffine base
crude"
