Abstract
Fuel injection is prevented until an injection timing of a fuel injection device detected during cranking of a diesel engine, is identical to a target injection timing. Preferably, the fuel injection timing is advanced during the prevention period according to fuel properties. In this way, startup time is shortened, and toxic components contained in exhaust gas are reduced during startup.
