Last month, we kicked this series off by showing you how to save some money by diagnosing a bad MAP sensor rather than just chucking cash at new parts that may or may not fix a specific problem. This ...
Today’s computerised engine control systems rely on inputs from a variety of sensors to regulate engine performance, emissions and other important functions. The sensors must provide accurate ...
AIR, fuel and spark are the three ingredients for a gasoline engine to produce power. Other than an occasional change of spark plugs and plug wires, most newer vehicle ignition systems will operate ...
While in closed-loop (part-throttle) operation, the EEC uses feedback from the car's oxygen sensors to monitor and maintain a "stoichiometric" air/fuel ratio. This ratio of around 14.7 parts air to 1 ...
Modern car engine control systems rely on input from several sensors to regulate the engine’s performance as well as its emissions and other vital functions. When these sensors fail to provide ...
