Electronic Control Unit

The Electronic Control Unit (ECU) continually corrects air/fuel mixture, based on signals from oxygen sensor. The ECU sends signals to differential pressure regulator, located on the fuel distributor. See Figure .

The CIS-E Motronic engine management system uses a single control unit for fuel injection, idle speed control, ignition, and emission controls. The oxygen sensor in the CIS-E Motronic system can adjust its range in response to changes in operating conditions. See Figure and Figure .
