Abstract

Engine processes, comprehensive: Adjusting the amount of fuel injected in response to a biodiesel concentration in the fuel supplied to an engine (10); and Adjusting the amount of fuel injected in fuel pre-injections (250, 252) and the amount of fuel injected in a fuel main injection (254) in response to the biodiesel concentration, wherein the amount of fuel main injection (254) increases at a faster rate than the amount of fuel injected during the fuel pre-injections (250, 252).
