Abstract
An electronic controlled carburetor has an induction passage into which fuel is fed by a fuel metering system communicated with the atmosphere through main and auxiliary air bleed passages. The main and auxiliary air bleed passages have therein main and auxiliary solenoid valves, respectively, for altering the rate of air flow therethrough. A control circuit determines the duty ratio of a first pulse signal applied to the main solenoid valve in response to an air/fuel ratio indicative signal from an oxygen sensor. The control circuit determines the duty ratio of a second pulse signal applied to the auxiliary solenoid valve from the duty ratio of the first pulse signal so as to permit the main solenoid valve to operate around 50% duty ratio over all engine operating modes.
