Abstract
A fuel injection system for a mixture-compressing spark-ignition internal combustion engine includes an air suction pipe, a throttle valve located in the pipe, and a member upstream of the throttle valve, which is actuatable by air flowing through the suction pipe so as to move a piston valve to dose a quantity of fuel to a fuel injection nozzle. The system includes a duct which bypasses the throttle valve, the duct having a valve which closes the duct when the throttle valve is closed and when the engine is above the idling speed. The duct valve is operatively connected to a switching member which switches off the ignition system of the engine.
Claims3
A fuel injection system for a mixture-compressing, spark-ignition internal combustion engine for use with a vehicle having an ignition system having a primary circuit, a clutch and a gear box, comprising:
- a suction pipe;
- a throttle valve located in said suction pipe;
- an air sensor disposed in said suction pipe upstream of said throttle valve and displaceable by air flowing through said suction pipe;
- a fuel metering valve operable by said air sensor;
- an air duct which by-passes said throttle valve;
- a duct valve within said air duct, and means for closing said duct via said duct valve only when at the same time the throttle valve is closed, the clutch is engaged, a gear of said gear box is engaged and the engine speed is above the idling speed, said duct valve being operatively connected independent of said closing means to a switching member for switching off the ignition system of the engine when said duct valve is in its position wherein it closes said air duct.
