Acceleration Mode

When the driver pushes on the accelerator pedal, air flow into the cylinders increases rapidly. To prevent possible hesitation, the PCM increases the pulse width to the injectors to provide extra fuel during acceleration. This is also known as power enrichment. The PCM determines the amount of fuel required based upon the TP, the ECT, the MAP, the MAF, and the engine speed.
