This injection/ignition system plays an faportant part in achieving the high degree of performance and reliab{ifty in the Cosworth engine, by giving an increased precision in the metering of the air-fuel ratio and by optimising the control of the engine timing. The injection/ignttion system comprises = the engine management module = the control sensors (stgnal transmitters) supplying engine operating data to the module and the injectors, ignition amplifier module and speed contro? valve which are controlled by the module. Effects of the air-fuel ratio and engine timing. Accurate control of the air-fuel ratio and fonttion timing are essential to achieve full performance of ‘the SIERRA RS COSKORTH engine. Ideal air-fuel ratfo will ensure optimum combustion. An incorrect air- fuel ratio will result in the mixture being too Tean or too rich which will impair engine performance, fuel consuaption and ultimately exhaust emissfons.
