Every time a vehicle’s driver presses the gas pedal, they are controlling how much fuel and air the engine takes in. The pedal tells the throttle valve how much air to let in and the computer tells the fuel system how much fuel to deliver.

There the spark plug ignites the mixture, producing the controlled burn that powers the vehicle.
