ABSTRACT:
Various systems and methods are described for controlling fuel injection to a plurality of cylinders. One example method comprises during combustion timing imbalances among a plurality of cylinders carrying out homogeneous charge compression ignition combustion, adjusting a fuel injection amount in a first cylinder to adjust a combustion timing of the first cylinder in a first direction, and correspondingly adjusting a fuel injection amount in a second cylinder in a second direction to maintain average engine torque and reduce the imbalance.
