During periods of light engine load and high RPM such as during coasting or hard deceleration, the engine operates with a very lean air/fuel ratio to reduce excess emissions of HC and CO. Deceleration is indicated by a sudden decrease in throttle angle or by closure of a switch when the throttle is closed (depending on the particular vehicle configuration). When these conditions are detected by the control computer, it computes a decrease in the pulse duration of the fuel injector signal. The fuel may even be turned off completely for very heavy deceleration.
