Show GIVE PURPOSE OF AUTO AIR CLEANER Do you know that the air cleaner on automobiles removes . the dust from the air making it purer than that which you yourself breathe? For instance in-stance the air cleaner on a Chevrolet reduces the wear on certain moving parts to 17 times less than on cars not equipped with an air cleaner. Were it not for the air cleaner dust would enter the engine, form on the cylinder walls and soon become thoroughly thor-oughly mixed with the lubricating oil. Without an air cleaner the inevitable in-evitable result would be formation of a grinding compound which, besides attacking the pistons, rings and cylinder cylin-der walls, would be driven remorselessly remorsel-essly into the bearings and other working parts. Quite often the dust on a good road cannot be seen ,but it is there just the same- Motor car wheels constantly grind off fine particles of road ma-aterial ma-aterial which are dispersed thru the air. These particles viewed under a microscope bear a striking resemblance resemb-lance to a value grinding compound. Tf it were not for the air cleaner, dust and sand would enter the carburetoreven car-buretoreven in city driving causing caus-ing wear on cylinders, rings and pistons.
