The present disclosure relates to fuel additive packages, fuels, and methods of achieving emission particulate reductions in
gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines using select Mannich detergents (e.g., reaction products of a hydrocarbyl-substituted hydroxyaromatic compound, an
aldehyde, and an amine). In one approach or embodiment, the select Mannich detergents herein for emissions particulate reductions include one or more of the following characteristics: (i) certain
molar ratios of the hydroxyaromatic compound, the amine, and the
aldehyde; (ii) select
oligomer structures; and / or (iii) certain isomeric forms of polyisobutylene substituents on the hydroxyaromatic compound.
