7. M-Tronic
The fully electronic M-Tronic engine
management system controls the
ignition timing and fuel flow, taking
all external conditions into account.
A basic or standard setting of the
carburetor is no longer required.
The M-Tronic electronically adjusts
the fuel-air mixture in the carburetor.
The M-Tronic controls all operating
states such as start, idle, part
throttle and full throttle while
accounting for the external
conditions, e.g., use at varying
attitudes, as well as changing
temperatures or fuel quality – the
carburetor does not have any
adjusting screws.
Troubleshooting and test
procedures are described in the
following chapters, Testing, b 7.3,
Troubleshooting, b 7.5.
