Abstract

A lubricant composition, a method for improving lubrication and a method for lubricating a machine. The lubricant composition includes a) a major amount of a base oil having a kinematic viscosity between 2 and 4 cSt at 100° C.; and b) dioctyl phosphite in an amount providing from about 100 to about 1000 ppm phosphorus to the lubricant composition. The lubricant composition has a phosphorus weight ratio of component (b) to total phosphorus in the lubricant composition of from 0.4:1 to less than about 0.8:1.
