Abstract

In a controlling device wherein operating conditions in the respective parts of a Diesel engine are detected by means of sensors, injection timing of fuel is calculated from the results detected, and at the same time a control valve provided in an oil pressure circuit for controlling the timing is controlled by means of electronic control in such that an actual injection timing of fuel obtained by a timer position sensor provided on a fuel injection pump comes to be close to the injection timing calculated, a vehicle which can attain whose minimum traveling by such a way that any abnormality in the timer position sensor is decided in response to a magnitude of output signals from the timer position sensor, at the same time, any trouble or accident of a timer oil pressure circuit is decided on the basis of a difference between the calculated injection timing and the actual injection timing, and the fuel is injected after either decreasing a prescribed quantity from a target quantity of injection obtained by calculation, or decreasing a prescribed quantity from the maximum injection quantity Q.sub.FULL at the time of these decisions.
