Abstract

A fuel supply control system which controls an amount of fuel supplied to an internal combustion engine. An ECU detects a value related to an amount of combustion ions generated within cylinders. The detected value is compared with a predetermined value, and the amount of fuel supplied to the engine is corrected based upon the comparison result, when the engine is in a transient operating condition, such as acceleration and deceleration, whereby the responsiveness of the air-fuel ratio feedback control is enhanced to improve drivability and exhaust emission characteristics.
