Abstract
A control system for controlling an internal combustion engine which is provided with at least one fuel injection pump which comprises for the control of the fuel injection pump a control rod, a servomotor, which is adapted to be mechanically coupled to said control rod, and a microcomputer for controlling said servomotor in dependence on operating conditions of the engine and on the position of an arbitrarily operable travel control lever. Means are provided for establishing a direct mechanical connection between the arbitrarily operable travel control lever and the control rod so that the latter can be moved under the control of the travel control lever in case of a failure of the electric system which comprises the sensors, the microcomputer and the servomotor.
