This method uses the fact that the domg360 of lean conditioned cylinder caused by imbalance malfunction indicates big value, as shown by the chain line in Fig 2 below.

The number of times for domg360 to exceed the judgment value in 667 revolutions (333 cycles) is calculated as condition value 2 (CV2). A malfunction is determined when CV2 exceeds the threshold.
