    摘要: In a double air-fuel ratio sensor system including two air-fuel ratio sensors disposed on the upstream and the downstream of the catalyst which is installed in the exhaust passage of the engine and has oxygen storage effect, an air-fuel ratio correction amount is calculated in accordance with the output of the upstream O.sub.2 sensor, and the actual air-fuel ratio is adjusted in accordance with the calculated air-fuel ratio correction amount. Further, the determination of the deterioration of the catalyst is carried out in accordance with the output of the second O.sub.2 sensor when the air-fuel ratio of the engine is adjusted.

    摘要: A rotor with outer teeth is fixed to a crankshaft, a crank angle sensor is disposed facing the outer teeth of the rotor, and the angular velocity of the crankshaft in the power stroke of the cylinders is found from the output pulses of the crank angle sensor. In this case, if the ignition sequence is 1-3-4-2, the angular velocities of the crankshaft for the no. 1 cylinder #1 and the no. 4 cylinder #4 are calculated from the output pulses generated based on the outer teeth of the same region I, while the angular velocities of the crankshaft for the no. 3 cylinder #3 and the no. 2 cylinder #2 are calculated from the output pulses generated based on the outer teeth of the same region II. Therefore, even if there is a manufacturing error in the outer teeth of the region I, so long as no misfire occurs, the angular velocities of the crankshaft will be the same for the no. 1 cylinder #1 and the no. 4 cylinder #4. As opposed to this, if a misfire occurs at the no. 1 cylinder #1, the angular velocity of the crankshaft at the power stroke of the no. 1 cylinder #1 will become slower than the angular velocity of the crankshaft at the power stroke of the no. 4 cylinder #4 and therefore it can be detected that the no. 1 cylinder #1 has misfired.

    摘要: An air-fuel ratio control device for an engine having two or more cylinder groups, such as a V-type engine or a horizontally opposed engine, wherein the air-fuel ratio control device controls the air-fuel ratio of cylinder groups in accordance with the output of upstream air-fuel ratio sensors and a downstream air-fuel ratio sensor. The upstream air-fuel ratio sensors are disposed in the individual exhaust passage connected to the respective cylinders upstream of the catalyst converter. The downstream air-fuel ratio sensor is disposed in the common exhaust passage downstream of the catalyst converter. The air-fuel control device usually controls the air-fuel ratios of individual cylinder groups in accordance with the output of the respective upstream air-fuel ratio sensor. When a determination of whether or not the catalyst converter has deteriorated is required, the air-fuel ratio control device controls the air-fuel ratio of all cylinder groups in accordance with the output of either one of upstream air-fuel ratio sensors, whereby the air fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flow into the catalyst converter is changed at a predetermined frequency (period). In this condition, the air-fuel ratio control device determines whether or not the catalyst converter has deteriorated by comparing the outputs of the upstream air-fuel ratio sensor and the downstream air-fuel ratio sensor.
