Engine power output and engine speed

The engine is controlled by the PCM.

The PCM uses various sensors to calculate the optimum ignition timing, the optimum injection quantity and injection time and the position of the throttle. In addition, various corrections are carried out, including adjustment of the ignition timing using the KS and adjustment of the fuel quantity by the Lambda control. Boost pressure control and fuel pressure control are also performed by the PCM.

For all work on the engine electronics, it is essential to ensure that the connectorsare seated and locked properly.
