The development of microcomputer controls for heavy truck diesel engines is in progress, following the large scale use of such controls in gasoline-engine passenger cars. While many of the sensors needed for diesel engine control systems are similar to their passenger car counterparts, sensors for certain parameters like oxides of nitrogen and 'smoke' in the exhaust are not available. Moreover, sensors for heavy truck engines have environmental and durability requirements much more severe than for passenger cars. The author describes the sensors necessary for heavy truck control in some detail, and gives an example of a passenger car sensor adapted to truck use.
