Abstract: Fuel control apparatus for dual chamber stratified charge engine systems utilizes a single point fuel control arrangement for the main (lean) air-fuel mixture in combination with a multi-point fuel injection arrangement for the igniting (rich) mixture. The single point and multi-point arrangements may be essentially independent in that they both sense and compute quantity of air flow, respectively, and meter and inject fuel respectively. In an alternate form of the invention, the air flow sensing function of the single point arrangement is used to provide suitable air flow information to the multi-point arrangement and in another alternate form of the invention the fuel flow injection function of the multi-point arrangement is used to provide suitable fuel flow information to the single point arrangement.

Abstract: A solenoid actuated combined fuel injection and intake valve supplies an air-fuel mixture to an electronic fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine. In one embodiment of the invention fuel injection is controlled dependent upon the operation of an auxiliary air-fuel intake valve while in another embodiment of the invention fuel injection is controlled independent of the operation of the auxiliary valve.
