WITH MARATHON WINTER-BLEND GASOLINE
YOU START FAST...YOU WON'T STALL!
To test Marathon winter-blend gasoline for fast starts, a
special laboratory "ice-box" was set at 30° below zero. In
it were put three 1963 cars.
The cars were left for six hours. Then research engineers
entered each car and turned on the ignition. One after
another, all three cars started—started fast.
To check the effectiveness of Marathon gasoline's
de-frosting agent the test room was set at 40° and
nearly 100% humidity, ideal conditions for carburetor
icing—most frequent cause of stalls.
The three cars were set to run for ten minutes, the
time in which most stalls occur. All three cars con-
tinued to run smoothly past the ten minute mark.
You'll get the same fast start, no-stall performance this winter if your car
is properly buttoned-up and you use Marathon winter-blend gasoline.
