ABSTRACT:
A proportional plus integral feedback control system is responsive to a two-state, filtered output signal from an exhaust gas oxygen sensor. The sensor's output is offset from stoichiometric switching by the presence of alcohol in the fuel blend. A correcting bias term is calculated and the average value of the feedback variable is appropriately biased by selection of the proportional plus integral terms.
