description The control method for an internal combustion engine having its exhaust coupled to a catalytic converter, involves retarding ignition timing from a nominal value during a period following engine start and returning the ignition timing to the nominal value by termination of the period. A mixture of air and fuel inducted into the engine is offset by a predetermined amount in a lean direction during the period to shift engine exhaust gas mixture towards an air/fuel ratio lean of stoichiometry by a preselected amount. The predetermined air/fuel mixture offset by a correction value is then corrected so that the exhaust gas mixture is shifted more closely to the lean offset from stoichiometry. The further involves returning the ignition timing to the nominal value during the period in response to a demand for engine power from a vehicle operator. The ignition timing is retarded during the period in response to at least one of vehicle speed and engine rpm deceleration, the ignition timing retardation being a function of the at least one of vehicle speed and engine rpm during the deceleration.
