<p>Air-Fuel Ratio Control System Having A Fluid-Powered Broken-Link Mechanism The subject air-fuel ratio control system for an engine includes a fluid-powered broken-link mechanism which is operatively linked between an air-fuel ratio control device and a fuel quantity control member, such as a fuel injection pump rack. During startup of the engine, the mechanism disables the device to permit excess fuel delivery. The device is automatically activated after engine startup by the mechanism solely in combined response to the existence of engine oil pressure and a governor moving the fuel quantity control member from an excess fuel delivery position to a predetermined position referred to as an air-fuel ratio control setting. This construction minimizes the duration and quantity of any smoke produced during engine startup, simplifies the cost and construction of the air-fuel ratio control device, and permits relatively easy adjustment of the air-fuel ratio control setting.</p> |
