OIL BUSINESS HAS ROMANCE Introduction of Cycol After Years of Experimental Work. A business story that reads like a of rVen , rcc;ni introductlon here of yool Motor Ofl by w. P Pullf & company as distributor. Uready h rcen and rod Cycol hexagon has fill m, straions and the motor meaning of the phrase "Cycol is free from de struct 'sulpho' compound?" B now knnjm ro mdtbrtotii thr.u,Pho.u the But back to the storv The Associated Oil company, akor I or Cycol. have been-one of the fore-1 most far-tors in tho country1-, oil business busi-ness for nearly a quarter of a century-It century-It has long been known to the soclat.,d Oil company, as well as to "ther companies, that the presence of : destructive "sulpho" compounds in oil was one of the chief obstacles to per-' feci motor lubrication. These impur-Ues impur-Ues cause the oil to break down rapidly rap-idly under engine heal This means' a thinning out of the oil a rupturi in th. lubricating film between moving parts and the resultant motor troubles. trou-bles. How to produce an oil with greater' stability under engine heat was the problem. Kroni th. hlgnest court:. .,: lence the Associated nil company rath, red a stuff of able men and s t them to wrk to find the solution After Af-ter exhaustive research, after the creation crea-tion of a new- method of refining (th new Eiexeon process which romoe3 destructive "sulpho" compounds), ar- ; ter analyzing over 400 crude oils, at-ti at-ti r bull, lmc: an experimental refinery j . sting 12,5.0 000 after building a mo-tor mo-tor testing laboratory costing another $i"r,ooo, after every conceivable he-nkal and operating test after all Of this It was finally announced that Cycol was perfected that It was "free from destructive '.sulpho' compounds " i Cycol Is said to bo different from other motor oils different In "base" different In chemical characteristics and different in service rendered. Thus the story was completed and the trr at objective was won after .ilnly endless months, running into years, But the sequel Is equally interesting. Korty-elght hours after Cycol was first marketed, the demand went far beyond the capacity of the huge Asso. luted refineries. Today Cy-COl Cy-COl Is widely sold throughout the- pa-cific pa-cific CO ist states. It Is i"n; Introduced Introduc-ed further cast as rapidly ns produc-tlcn produc-tlcn and other conditions permit. Th.- extensive use of Cycol is not only a practical demonstration or j motor conservation, but a glowing, growing trihute'to a marked aehle--ment of science. ,
