INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE MISFIRE DETECTION METHOD

摘要

A method for detecting a misfire in at least one truck or motor vehicle internal combustion engine cylinder by analysing the values (Cg, n, i) of a quantity (Cg) characteristic of combustion and generated by observing the rotation of the crankshaft to detect the occurrence of a misfire. According to the method, misfire detection is suspended for a predetermined time when the analysis of said values (Cg, n, i) reveals anomalies originating in the transmission power line between the drive shaft and the vehicle wheels.
