Claim Text:
1. An engine oil composition comprising a major amount of a base oil selected from a Group II, Group III, Group IV and Group V base oil and mixtures thereof, wherein the Group II and Group III base oils have at least 90% saturates, and a minor amount of an additive package, wherein the additive package comprises: (A) friction modifier component selected from one or more compounds of the Formulae I-III: wherein R is a linear or branched, saturated, unsaturated, or partially saturated hydrocarbyl having about 8 to about 22 carbon atoms and R wherein R is a linear or branched, saturated, unsaturated, or partially saturated hydrocarbyl having about 8 to about 22 carbon atoms and R wherein R is a linear or branched, saturated, unsaturated, or partially saturated hydrocarbyl having about 8 to about 22 carbon atoms; X is an alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or ammonium cation and n is the valence of cation X; and (B) at least one friction modifier that is different from the one or more compounds (A) and which comprises at least one compound selected from alcohols, glycerol esters, amines, ethoxylated amines, amides, ethoxylated amides, dimer acids, polyesters, zinc dithiocarbamates, molybdenum dithiocarbamates, and sulfur-free molybdenum compounds; and wherein the engine oil composition is adapted for use as a crankcase engine oil lubricant suitable for lubrication of at least pistons, rings, cylinders, bearings and crankshafts of an engine crankcase, the engine oil composition has a phosphorus content of 50-1000 ppm and the engine oil composition contains 0.1-2.0 wt. % of the friction modifier component (A), based on the total weight of the engine oil composition, and when the friction modifier component (A) is a compound of the formula (III), the engine oil composition comprises a major amount of a base oil having at least 90% saturates and being selected from a Group II, Group III and Group IV base oil and mixtures thereof.
