Engineers Have Figures to Prove

Kerosene used to be a good stand

Now come oil engineers with the
declaration that kerosene causes
loss of Is per cent Of the total lu-
bricating capacity Of an automobile.
So, instead Of using kerosene 70

have studied this phase Of motoring
say the drained case should be
cleaned with fresh engine OIL
That costs more money, and
arouses bit Of suspicion, when It is
known that this advice comes from

have the figures to prove that, In the
long run, the new method is the more
economical.

1t is safer, therefore to use the reg.

case should be drained about every
1000 miles in summer and every 500
miles in winter Every time the
