The instant disclosure generally relates to lubricating compositions having an oil of lubricating viscosity, a mixture of boron-containing and boron-free dispersants, an overbased magnesium-based detergent, an overbased calcium-based detergent, a molybdenum-containing material, and, optionally, other performance additives. The instant lubricating compositions may improve one or more of cleanliness, TBN retention, fuel economy and low-speed preignition ('LSPI').

Lubricating compositions and methods of operating an internal combustion engine

Banner assembly

The disclosed technology relates to additive packages for lubricating compositions in diesel and gasoline powered vehicles. In particular, the disclosed technology provides an additive package that can be added to a lubricating composition with oil of lubricating viscosity to improve at least one of (A) piston deposit, (B) piston cleanliness, (C) soot induced viscosity thickening, and (D) oxidation induced viscosity thickening.

Lubricant additive booster system

Oxidative degradation may be reduced in a lubricant composition which contains an oil of lubricating viscosity and at least about 1 percent by weight of a C1-C3 alkyl ester of a carboxylic acid of about 12 to about 24 carbon atoms, by including within the lubricant composition a sulfonate detergent in an amount sufficient to provide at least about 0.2 percent by weight sulfonate soap to the lubricant composition, wherein the weight ratio of sulfonate soap to phenate soap in the lubricant composition is at least about 0.35:1.

Engine oil formulations for biodiesel fuels

The lubricant for an internal combustion engine fueled by a biodiesel fuel (that is, a liquid fuel containing a C1-C4 alkyl ester of a carboxylic acid of about 12 to about 24 carbon atoms) exhibits improved resistance to oxidative degradation when the lubricant contains an alkali metal detergent.
