A lubricating oil composition including greater than 50% by weight of a base oil, based on the total weight of the lubricating oil composition and an additive for boosting the TBN of the lubricating oil without increasing the sulphated ash content. Also disclosed is a method for boosting the TBN of the lubricating oil composition as measured by both ASTM D-2896 and ASTM D-4739 without increasing the sulphated ash content by adding a TBN booster. The TBN booster can also be employed to improve results for the lubricating oil composition in a ball rust test and certain of the TBN boosters exhibit outstanding seal compatibility.
