ABSTRACT:
An air-fuel ratio adjusting system controls the amount of additional air supply through the bypass passage of the carburetor to ensure optimum engine operation even in a warming up condition of the engine. The air-fuel ratio adjusting system includes an air-fuel ratio sensor disposed in the exhaust manifold, a warm-up sensor for detecting the temperature of engine cooling water or engine block, and a control unit for providing a control signal to a driving motor for the bypass valve. The bypass valve is controlled so that the air-fuel ratio of the mixture becomes the stoichiometric one and at the same time, during the warming up condition, the maximum opening of the bypass valve is limited to a predetermined degree depending on the temperature of the engine.
