Disclosed is a lubricant composition including: at least one base oil; at least one olefin copolymer; at least one detergent; and at least one hydrogenated and linear styrene/butadiene copolymer. Also disclosed is the use of this composition for reducing the fuel consumption of an engine and for improving the cleanliness of a 4-stroke or 2-stroke, preferably 4-stroke marine engine, or of a stationary engine.

The instant disclosure provides a process for preparing a lubricant or fuel additive mixture where an oil of lubricating viscosity or fuel are blended with additives that are mixed via an acoustic mixer. The additives and oil of lubricating viscosity or fuel can mixed together or any component of the lubricant or fuel additive mixture can be mixed separately prior to mixing to form the final lubricant. The process provides for continuous mixing to form lubricant and/or fuel additive mixture final products.

A lubricating oil composition comprising greater than 50 wt. % of a base oil of lubricating viscosity, and an additive composition comprising: an amount of one or more zinc dialkyl dithiophosphates (ZDDP compounds) and an amount of one or more viscosity modifiers, wherein an amount of phosphorus (P) in weight percent provided to the lubricating oil composition by the one or more ZDDP compounds divided by the amount of the one or more viscosity modifiers (VM) in weight percent based on a total weight of the lubricating oil composition is a PNM quotient of more than about 0.0075. The lubricating oil composition can improve resistance to engine deposits and extend oil drain intervals of an internal combustion engine.
