Fuel Cutoff Control

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2017 Honda Odyssey, 2016 Honda Odyssey, 2015 Honda Odyssey, 2014 Honda Odyssey, and 2013 Honda Odyssey. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

During deceleration with the throttle valve closed, current to the injectors is cut off to improve fuel economy at engine speeds over 850 rpm. Fuel cutoff control also occurs when the engine speed exceeds 6, 400 rpm, regardless of the position of the throttle valve, to protect the engine from over-rewing. When the vehicle is stopped, the PCM cuts the fuel at engine speeds over 5, 000 rpm. On a cold engine, fuel cut occurs at a lower engine speed.
