EP1111202A3

System for controlling engine equipped with electromagnetically operated engine valve

Abstract

An engine control system for an engine system with electromagnetically operated intake and exhaust valves has a control unit. The control unit is arranged to decide whether each of the intake and exhaust valves is put in an abnormal condition, to close a normal valve of the intake and exhaust valves when one of the intake and exhaust valves is put in the abnormal condition, and to stop the current-flowing to a primary ignition coil when one of the intake and exhaust valves is put in the abnormal condition and when the primary ignition coil is not starting the current-flowing.
