Abstract

In a combustion engine control, an amount of fuel suitable for each combustion cycle in the combustion engine is determined, the fuel is injected into the combustion engine, a spark for igniting the injected fuel is generated in the combustion engine, it is detected that the combustion engine is ordered to be stopped, the combustion engine is stopped by preventing to start injecting the fuel into the combustion engine after it is detected that the combustion engine is ordered to be stopped, the determined amount of fuel completes being injected into the combustion engine after the fuel starts to be injected into the combustion engine, regardless of whether it is detected that the combustion engine is ordered to be stopped.
