Arrangement for controlling the metering of fuel to an internal combustion engine

An arrangement is disclosed for controlling the metering of fuel to an internal combustion engine. The control can be open-loop and/or closed-loop and the amount of fuel metered to the engine is limited by means of a full-load limiter dependent on at least the rotational speed of the engine. The arrangement further includes a substitute full-load limiter for limiting the amount of fuel metered to the engine. It is particularly advantageous for the substitute full-load limiter to operate in dependence on the engine temperature and/or the fuel temperature, with a linear function of these parameters representing a further embodiment of the invention. Block diagrams of the arrangement of the invention and characteristic fields explain its mode of operation.
