  • Patent number: 4571683
    Abstract: This system computes final fuel injection amount TAU on the basis of the following formula;TAU=A.times.TP+B+JwhereA : a first learning termB : a second learning termTP : basic fuel injection amountJ : correction amountLearning control is effected by correcting the second learning term B during idling periods and by correcting the first learning term A when an engine has larger than a predetermined load.

  • Patent number: 4462360
    Abstract: A stepping motor is driven to control an opening area of an intake air flow rate control valve such that an engine rotational speed in a substantially full-close position of a throttle valve is brought into a target rotational speed range related to at least an engine coolant temperature. An intake air quantity into an engine and engine rotational speed are detected to determine a ratio of the intake air quantity to the engine rotational speed. Downward control to the intake air flow rate control valve is inhibited when a ratio of intake air quantity into an engine to the engine rotational speed is smaller than a predetermined reference.
