An electronic engine fuel controller that is simple, cheap, easily
installed, and configurable for any internal combustion engine. The
system is intended for upgrading older carbureted vehicles or vehicles
that have been modified beyond the limits of the OEM controller. It takes
advantage of micro controller technology with integrated memory, digital
inputloutput, sensor and timer channels to produce a low parts count, as
well as reliable operation in a variety of vehicles, even when installed
by people with little experience in this area. Operation is by sensing a
tachometer signal from the existing distributor, or similar device that
produces one pulse per cylinder cycle. When a pulse is received, software
in the micro measures engine parameters, calculates fuel parameters, and
fires one or more injectors. Software on an external computer
communicates with the micro, allowing the user to modify any of the
controller parameters.
