Abstract
The present invention provides a lubricating oil composition for internal combustion engine exhibiting excellent fuel-saving performance for a long period of time. The lubricating oil composition for internal combustion engine is characterized by containing a base oil having a kinematic viscosity as measured at 100° C. of 2 to 10 mm/s, an aromatic content (% C) of 3 or less, and a sulfur content of 300 ppm by mass or less, and the following additives: (1) an alkaline earth metal salicylate-based detergent in an amount of 0.3 to 1.5 mass % as reduced to sulfated ash; (2) a zinc dihydrocarbyldithiophosphate in an amount of 0.03 to 0.10 mass % as reduced to phosphorus; (3) a succinimide-based ashless dispersant having a molecular weight of 500 to 4,000, and an alkenyl group or an alkyl group in an amount of 0.05 to 0.20 mass % as reduced to nitrogen; (4) a phenol-based ashless antioxidant in an amount of 0.05 to 3.0 mass %; (5) an amine-based ashless antioxidant in an amount of 0.05 to 3.0 mass %; (6) a molybdenum dithiocarbamate-based friction modifier in an amount of 0.01 to 0.15 mass % as reduced to molybdenum; and optionally, (7) a viscosity index improver in an amount of 0.01 to 8 mass % as resin amount, the unit mass % being based on the total amount of the composition.
