Abstract
A method and apparatus for operating an internal combustion engine which includes a rate of air-flow measuring device for the supplied combustion air, a fuel-metering arrangement controlled thereby and an ignition point-adjusting mechanism; the operating point during non-steady operation is displaced thereby from a position which is at least approximately optimum as regards fuel consumption, by an additional fuel quantity into a range less favorable from a consumption point of view. With renewed steady operation, the operating point is again readjusted corresponding to its starting position.
