Abstract:
A VVA apparatus includes an operating mechanism that changes a valve-lift amount, and a microcomputer-based controller that controls the operating mechanism to change the valve-lift amount in accordance with engine operating conditions. A first portion of the valve-lift amount between a high lift and a low lift is changed continuously, and a second portion of the valve-lift amount between the low lift and zero lift is changed with one of the low lift and zero lift selected.
