          Application 08/495,593                                                       

                              B mixtures (specification, page 9, lines 1-              
                              10);                                                     
                         (2) improved results in deposits on intake                    
                              valves (specification, page 9, lines 20-30)              
                              and                                                      
                         (3) improved octane requirement increase values               
                              (specification, page 11, lines 25-35).                   

                               The Schwahn declaration                                 
                    33. The Schwahn declaration reports the results of                 
          experimentation said to have been carried out.                               
                    34. Schwahn, who seems qualified to carry out the                  
          experiments, is said to have made a fuel mixture I "according                
          to the *** application" (Declaration, page 2) and fuel mixture               
          II for comparison.                                                           
                    35. Fuel mixture I was made using a                                
          polyisobutylamine having an average molecular weight of about                
          1000 produced via a hydroformylation process.                                
                    36. Fuel mixture II was made using a                               
          polyisobutylamine having an average molecular weight of about                
          1000 produced via a chlorination process.
