Abstract

A method and system for monitoring an exhaust gas sensor coupled in an engine exhaust is provided. In one example, the method adjusts an estimate of an exhaust gas oxygen sensor delay time based on a fuel injection ramping time. The fuel injection ramping time compensates for fuel that is injected to the engine while the engine enters or exits a fuel cut-off mode.
