Post-catalyst cylinder imbalance monitor

Methods and systems are provided for detecting cylinder air-fuel imbalance. In one example, a method may include adjusting engine operation based on an indication of cylinder air-fuel imbalance. The imbalance may be detected based on output from a second exhaust gas sensor and a plurality of individ...

Zusammenfassung:	Methods and systems are provided for detecting cylinder air-fuel imbalance. In one example, a method may include adjusting engine operation based on an indication of cylinder air-fuel imbalance. The imbalance may be detected based on output from a second exhaust gas sensor and a plurality of individual cylinder weighting factors, the second sensor located in an exhaust system downstream of a first sensor located in the exhaust system.
