Allen sent the 13 test cars away with seated crankeuses ona gruelling nation-wide road test. UNIVERSITY SCIENTISTS FIND THIS NEW OIL LASTS LONGER T 8:30 on the morning of April 8th, 1930, 13 stock cars, repre- senting practically every popular type of automobile engine, left Law- rence, Kansas. Professor H.C. Allen supervised the start. The amount of oil poured into each crankcase was weighed. The crankcases and filter pads were carefully sealed. Faculty Members first to un- lock crankcases and test oil The cars were routed to 13 lead- ing universities. When they reached their destinations after runs rang- ing from 1500 to 2400 miles, the crankcases were unsealed by des- ignated faculty members, the oil drained off, weighed, and then sub- jected to comprehensive tests by such well known authorities as Professors Huff of Johns Hopkins, Graf of Oregon State College aud Beisler of the Univers | The results of these impartial sci- entific tests confirmed the findings of Texaco engineers! This oil is longer- lasting — superior—crack-proof! Dr. Lincoln T. Work says— Dr. Lincoln T. Work, in charge of the tests, says —“These various reports on the new Texaco Motor Oil emphasize many different points, and present these outstand- ing characteristics: 1—A low oil consumption which averaged one quart in 790 miles. 2—Very little tendency to form carbon when fresh or when used. 3—Retention of viscosity even after extended use on the road.” the New TEXACO MOTOR OIL ©1930, THE TEXAS CO.
