Abstract:
Air/fuel imbalance monitoring systems and methods for monitoring air/fuel ratio imbalance of an internal combustion engine are disclosed. In one embodiment, an oxygen sensor is sampled above cylinder firing frequency and a ratio of data from at least one window over a total number of windows is determined. The approach can be used to indicate imbalances between engine cylinders.
