Abstract

A control mechanism for a fuel metering system in a combustion engine is proposed which makes possible a start control defined as load-independent or as nearly load-independent. It is the purpose of the control mechanism to avoid possible false interpretations of the load signal during extremely low rpm. The control mechanism comprises a function generator which, dependent on operational characteristics, determines or co-determines the signal at the load input of a signal processing stage of the fuel metering apparatus during start-up.
