Abstract
In an outboard motor having a fuel-injected two-cycle engine, engine speed, throttle setting, engine temperature and/or other variables are detected and a basic fuel injection volume determined. Fuel is supplied to each of the engine's cylinders according to the detected values. When the engine is operating at a high speed, trim angle and vessel speed are detected. The trim angle and vessel speed are used to correct the basic fuel injection volume determined before high speed operation of the engine is detected.
