Abstract

Fuel control dynamic health assessment systems and methods related to monitoring fuel flow control are provided. In one embodiment, a method for controlling a system having an engine, includes determining a predicted valve position of a valve, the valve being operable to control fuel flow to a fuel pump that pumps fuel to a common fuel rail of the engine, determining an actual valve position, determining an error between the predicted valve position and the actual valve position, and setting a degradation condition in response to the error.
