Abstract
A fuel control apparatus for an internal combustion engine which has an air intake tube includes an electrically controlled fuel injection valve and a control device for controlling the valve in accordance with various parameters of the engine. The control device includes a radiating fin which is located on one end surface of the control device for removing heat which is generated by heat-generating elements which drive the valve. The control device is mounted on the air intake tube so that the radiating fin projects into the air intake tube. In this manner, the radiating fin is cooled by incoming air.
