SERVICE TALKS Talk No. 5 Lubricating Systems It is not generally known that the lubricating system of all makes of Automotive Engines determine the type of lubricant to be used. Anyone who has ever driven a car knows there is such a thing as a crank case which from time to time needs oil, but how that oil is used or what it does in the crank case is a mystery to very many. The lubricating system is worked out by the designer to conform with the needs of the motor, according to stroke, bore and other determining factors which cannot be treated with here at length, so it must suffice to men tion that there are many designs, but all worked out on approved engineering principles adopted from Stationary and Steam Engine lubrication, these being the Full Force Feed, Force Feed, Force Feed and Splash and" Splash cir culating, the last named being the system used in the re liable Ford engine. Each one of these systems needs lubrication more than oil, so we would be glad to enlighten you on the . needs of your motor and help you to obtain utmost effi ciency for every penny you spend with us.
