Abstract

Abstract Hydrocarbon-soluble combinations of: (A) aliphatic C4 to C10 monoamine salts of branched chain primary C8 to C16 alkyl acid esters of orthophosphoric acid; (B) polybutenes having molecular weights in the range 400 to 3000 and viscosities in the range 500 to 900,000 SUS at 100*F. and 60 to 20,000 SUS at 210*F.; and, optionally, (C) hydrocarbon solvents. These mixtures are useful in gasolines for spark ignition engines to inhibit the formation of intake valve deposits and to clean the engine''s carburetor.
