* Mass Airflow Sensor (MAF): Measures the amount of air entering the engine. This is crucial for calculating the correct fuel injection.
* Throttle Position Sensor (TPS): Tells the PCM how far the throttle is open.
* Oxygen Sensor(s) (O2): Measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust. This feedback allows the PCM to adjust the fuel mixture for optimal combustion and emissions.
* Fuel Injectors: These are electronically controlled by the PCM to deliver the precise amount of fuel determined by the sensor inputs.
* Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor (or sometimes Barometric Pressure Sensor): Measures the pressure in the intake manifold, indicating engine load.
* Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP): This sensor determines engine speed and position, vital for precise fuel delivery timing.
* Temperature Sensors (Coolant Temperature Sensor, Intake Air Temperature Sensor): These provide crucial information for fuel mixture adjustments based on engine and air temperature.
In short, there's no single "fuel air metering" *component* to adjust or replace. Problems with the fuel-air mixture usually require diagnostic testing to pinpoint the faulty sensor, injector, or a problem with the PCM itself. A mechanic will use a scan tool to read diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) from the PCM and then perform further tests based on those codes to determine the source of the issue.
