Deceleration fuel shutoff, general
Deceleration fuel shutoff in deceleration mode of the engine has the following tasks:
- increasing the braking effect of the engine
- reducing fuel consumption
- improving exhaust characteristics
The ME-SFI [ME] control unit (N3/10) performs a deceleration fuel shutoff dependent on the following sensors and signals:
- Coolant temperature sensor (B11/4)
- Accelerator pedal sensor (B37), accelerator pedal position
- Crankshaft Hall sensor (B70), engine rpm
- Fully integrated transmission control controller unit (Y3/8), gear range over drive train CAN (CAN C)
Deceleration fuel shutoff, function sequence
In deceleration mode, the ME-SFI [ME] control unit switches off the fuel injectors (Y76) dependent on coolant temperature, engaged gear and engine speed, if the accelerator pedal is not actuated.
The fuel injectors are switched on again when the accelerator pedal is operated.
The ME-SFI [ME] control unit also uses the left and right intake camshaft solenoids (Y49/4, Y49/5) and the left and right exhaust camshaft solenoids (Y49/6, Y49/7) to adjust the camshafts to a position with reduced valve overlap. This allows secure combustion without misfires.
After deceleration fuel shutoff, the ME-SFI [ME] control unit enriches the fuel/air mixture by briefly lengthening the injection period in order to relieve the catalytic converters of enriched oxygen.
In order to prevent a sudden torque rise when combustion is restarted after a deceleration fuel shutoff, the ME-SFI [ME] control unit briefly shifts the ignition angles of the ignition coils (T1) towards "retard".
Deceleration fuel shutoff is disabled when exhaust temperatures are too high, since the high oxygen content occurring in the exhaust during a deceleration fuel shutoff could cause increased oxidation of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon (afterburning). The heat so generated can overheat the catalytic converters.
