That's the way it is now. But when Bosch introduced CIS, there was no EFI and DME's as we know them today. The CIS was a good system for the times. It *was* simple compared to some other existing mechanical FI systems.

Actually, with a lot of reading on the subject, along with help from this BBS, I feel quite at home with CIS. On my car, it's working just fine.

BTW...if you want a good overview of how CIS works, take a look at the article in the October Panorama (Pg. 86).
