    摘要: A system for detecting failure of a fuel pressure sensor in an internal combustion engine, including an injector (32) provided at an intake system of the engine downstream of a throttle valve (38), a fuel supply passage (16) connected to a fuel supply source (fuel tank 12) for supplying fuel to the injector (32), pressure regulator (28) provided in the fuel supply passage (16) and operating to maintain a difference between the fuel pressure (PF2A) and the manifold absolute pressure at a constant value, a fuel pressure sensor (PF2 sensor 54) for detecting the fuel pressure (PF2A) in the fuel supply passage (16) downstream of the pressure regulator, and a manifold absolute pressure sensor (62) for detecting the manifold absolute pressure (PBA) downstream of the throttle valve (38). In the system, an index indicative of a ratio (.DELTA.PF2A) of the fuel pressure (PF2A) fluctuation relative to the manifold absolute pressure (PBA) fluctuation is compared to reference values (#PF2L, #PF2H) which define a range. Sensor failure is discriminated when the index (.DELTA.PF2A) is found to have remained outside of the range for a predetermined maximum time (tmP2STK). The system enables rapid and accurate detection of fuel pressure sensor abnormality (failure).

    摘要: An air-fuel ratio control system for an internal combustion engine includes an ECU which cuts off fuel supply to the engine at deceleration thereof, measures a fuel cut-off period over which the fuel cut-off means cuts off fuel supply to the engine, and enriches the air-fuel ratio of a mixture supplied to the engine to a degree dependent upon the measured fuel cut-off period, at the restart of fuel supply to the engine immediately after termination of cutting-off of fuel supply to the engine. When a second cutting-off of fuel supply to the engine is carried out within a predetermined time period after the restart of fuel supply to the engine immediately after termination of a first cutting-off of fuel supply to the engine, the ECU sets the degree of enriching the air-fuel ratio of the mixture supplied to the engine according to the sum of a first fuel cut-off period over which the first cutting-off of fuel supply to the engine lasted and a second fuel cut-off period over which the second cutting-off of fuel supply to the engine lasted.

    摘要: A catalyst deterioration-determining system for an internal combustion engine has a catalyst arranged in the exhaust system, for purifying exhaust gases emitted from the engine, an oxygen concentration sensor arranged in the exhaust system at a location downstream of the catalyst, for detecting the concentration of oxygen present in the exhaust gases, and an ECU which controls the air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture supplied to the engine in a feedback manner in response to the output from the oxygen concentration sensor. Determination of deterioration of the catalyst is carried out based on the output from the oxygen concentration sensor during execution of air-fuel ratio feedback control. An inversion period parameter representative of a repetition period of change in the output from the oxygen concentration sensor over a predetermined diagnosis period is measured, and a determination parameter is calculated by averaging values of the inversion period parameter measured over different diagnosis periods as the predetermined diagnosis period. The determination of deterioration of the catalyst is carried out based on the determination parameter.

    摘要: In a fuel vapor release suppression system for a fuel tank, a main tank and a sub tank communicate with each other, and the sub tank and a canister communicate with each other. When the main tank has a higher temperature, fuel vapor of the main tank is supplied to the sub tank where the fuel vapor is liquefied. When the main tank has a lower temperature, fuel vapor of the sub tank is supplied to the main tank. At this time, low concentration fuel vapor is supplied from the canister to the main tank, thereby accelerating generation of fuel vapor corresponding to sub tank fuel vapor pressure, so that the sub tank fuel vapor pressure decreases. Therefore, liquefaction is accelerated in the sub tank when the main tank temperature increases. Thus, fuel vapor generated in a fuel tank is effectively liquified irrespective of ambient air temperature.
