Aromatic ethers of polyalkylphenoxyalkanols having the formula: <IMAGE> (I) or a fuel soluble salt thereof, wherein R is hydroxy, nitro or -(CH2)x-NR5R6, wherein R5 and R6 are independently hydrogen or lower alkyl having 1 to carbon atoms, and x is 0 or 1; R1 is hydrogen, hydroxy, nitro or -NR7R8, wherein R7 and R8 are independently hydrogen or lower alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms; R2 and R3 are independently hydrogen or lower alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms; and R4 is a polyalkyl group having an average molecular weight in the range of about 450 to 5,000. The compounds of formula I are useful as fuel additives for the prevention and control of engine deposits.
