Abstract

The invention is directed to a method and an arrangement for controlling the power of an internal combustion engine. A power adjusting unit or the air supplied to the engine is adjusted in dependence upon driver command. The mixture adaptation is improved for rapid changes of the driver command when the engine is cold and/or when the ambient air is cold by limiting the rate of change of the supplied air or of the position of the power adjusting unit.
