ABSTRACT:
An air/fuel ratio detection device and an air/fuel ratio control device, in which combustion of an engine is controlled with a simple design and toxic substances in exhaust gas discharged from the engine are reduced. Time A during which a lean signal is at a high level is measured. If the time A is shorter than the predetermined value, it is determined that the air/fuel ratio is richer than a target value, and time B during which an electromagnetic valve 21 is open is lengthened, increasing the quantity of supply air and making leaner the fuel mixed air, such that the target air/fuel ratio is approached. If the time A is longer than the predetermined value, it is determined that the air/fuel ratio is leaner and the time B is shortened.
