QUESTION “Aren’t all good oils about the
same?”
ANSWER No more than all athletes are the
same; there’s always one performer that
tops ’em all. Among motor oils—regardless
of cost or where they come from — it’s
“RPM”! No trouble from sludge, carbon
or varnish—"RPM” was made for today’s
high-speed motors. It’s tops for any car!
