Abstract
A fuel injection system for continuous injection to an internal combustion engine has a pivoting air sensor plate with a correction lever that engages a fuel control plunger for metering out fuel in proportion to the air flow. The system also includes a bimetallic, temperature-dependent strip which exerts an opening force on the correction lever when the engine is cold. An electric heater is energized by the starter switch and begins to reduce the force due to the bimetallic strip even before the engine has actually warmed up. A second electric heater of reduced power maintains the strip in disengagement during normal engine operation.
