1. SENSORS AND ACTUATORS
Introduction
In the electronic controlled engine system, sensors
detect the state of the engine, and all information
from the sensors is sent to Engine Control Unit
(ECU).
According to the information from sensors, ECU
calculates injection volume and ignition timing. ECU
also controls idle rotating speed by means of the idle
speed control valve (ISCV).

ECU gathers information from sensors about the engine,
and then controls actuators for Electronic Fuel Injection
(EFI), Electronic Spark Advance (ESA) and Idle Speed
Control (ISC), according to that information.
