A brief retrospective of the early years of the
history of the automobile is followed by a description of the principles
behind the operation, management and control of a gasoline (spark-ignition)
engine. Descriptions of the cylinder-charge control, fuel-injection, ignition,
and catalytic emission-control systems provide a comprehensive overview of the
control mechanisms which are essential to the operation of a modern gasoline
engine. The texts dealing with the Motronic engine-management system
illustrate how this is put into practice. Particular emphasis is placed here
on the diagnostic functions, which, on account of the ever more stringent
requirements of emission-control legislations, make up an increasing
proportion of the Motronic system.
