Abstract
A fuel composition containing a fuel additive which comprises a metal compound has been developed which fuel composition is stable upon storage. It has been discovered that a fuel additive comprising a metal compound and an oxime does not degrade a fuel, e.g. heating fuel oil, diesel fuel and the like, upon storage. Fuel additives containing metal compounds to function, e.g., as an agent to reduce soot formation and generally improve the combustion properties of the fuel may be added to fuels and stored without the build-up of gummy deposits and sludge in the storage container.
