A NEW and BETTER The New Low 400 End Point A low end point, assured through the more ac curate fractional control of the gasoline runs, checked frequently by the volatility tests, leav ing no heavy ends, promotes complete vapori zation and burning of each cylinder charge. Less Crankcase Dilution —better cylinder lubrication, more ncrfect piston seal and greater mileage before the changing of crankcase oil be comes necessary. The Low Initial Boiling Point With the low boiling point, due to regulation of the still operations to retain the lighter frac tions of the crude oil in the gasoline runs, the NEW Texaco provides a “‘high test” gasoline of greater volatility. Easier Starting —less load on the storage battery, and more power with below-normal engine temper ature. Anti-Knock Qualities Successfully producing certain desirable arom atic and naphthene hydrocarbons in the final new Texaco, the Holmes-Manly Process pro duces an execeptional gasoline with combus tion characteristics in the finished product which give it exceptional non-detonating qual ities. Smooth Engine Operation —and more power, better hill work without retarded spark. and a quicker pick-up. A Balanced Distillation Range The distillation range, controlled by the Holm cs-Manley proportioning of intermediate boil ing fractions, provides a volatile fuel with a combustion rate balanced to engine require ments. The new Texaco works best on a lean mixture. Maximum Acceleration —quicker pick-up and more power on the hills. The new Texaco takes the acceleration load. The New Volatile Range By shortening the distillation range, the new Texaco Gasoline provides a higher volatility, wTiich gives the maximum acceleration with a leaner mixture while the engine is warming up. Greater Mileage <£-no unburned heavy ends, greater gasoline economy (more air, less gas), and low er cost per mile.
