Abstract

In effecting individual cylinder fuel injection quantity control in an electronically controlled diesel engine, wherein rpm variation with every explosion cylinder is detected, and a fuel injection quantity spill control actuator is controlled with every cylinder so as to eliminate a dispersion in rpm variation between the cylinders, so that engine vibrations due to the dispersion in fuel injection quantity between the cylinders can be reduced, timing of a control command to the fuel injection quantity spill control actuator is determined in accordance with engine speed and engine load to avoid both a delay in control to a cylinder to be corrected and interference with the injection of fuel to a cylinder immediately before the cylinder to be corrected, and a control command for every cylinder is given to the fuel injection quantity spill control actuator at the determined timing.
