Abstract

An exhaust gas purifying system for an automobile engine is equipped with a metal zeolite catalytic converter for deoxidizing and purifying nitrogen oxides in exhaust gas. The system controls and compulsorily changes the air-fuel ratio of the fuel mixture injected into the automobile engine based on a target air-fuel ratio only when the temperature of the exhaust gas, before entering the catalyst, is greater than a specific temperature.
