COMPOSITION AND METHOD FOR PREVENTING OR REDUCING ENGINE KNOCK AND PRE-IGNITION IN HIGH COMPRESSION SPARK IGNITION ENGINES

摘要

A lubricant composition for high compression spark ignition engines that contains at least one bismuth-containing compound (e.g., a bismuth salt of a carboxylic acid). A method for preventing or reducing engine knock and pre-ignition in an engine lubricated with a formulated oil. The formulated oil has a composition including at least one bismuth-containing compound (e.g., a bismuth salt of a carboxylic acid). A fuel composition for high compression spark ignition engines that contains at least one bismuth-containing compound (e.g., a bismuth salt of a carboxylic acid). A method for preventing or reducing engine knock and pre-ignition in an engine by using a fuel additive composition in a gasoline fuel composition. The fuel additive composition contains at least one bismuth-containing compound (e.g., a bismuth salt of a carboxylic acid). The lubricating oils of this disclosure are useful as passenger vehicle engine oil (PVEO) products.
