It is anticipated this ad will increase the demand for 5W-30 engine oil. All Pontiac dealerships should stock and use 5W-30 oils where applicable. The
Goodwrench line of oils available from your local Parts Distribution Center includes the 5W-30 viscosity.
HOW TO SAVE MONEY
WITH THE RIGHT MOTOR OIL
SAE 5W-30 COULD IMPROVE STARTING, FUEL ECONOMY AND ENGINE LIFE.
Many of today's new gasoline engines will start better in cold weather and use less fuel if they're protected with SAE 5W-30 motor oil. In fact, General
Motors recommends 5W-30 for year round use in many of its current models. Your owner's manual will tell you if your car or truck is among them.
Even if it's not, a check of the manual will help you select the oil that's right for your engine, for your climate, for the way you drive. Understanding the
language of motor oil is a big help, too.
