Abstract

Detection of abnormalities of an idle speed control system is performed based on whether a deviation of an on-idle engine speed from a target engine speed is within a critical range which is changed so as to make the idle speed control system harder to be judged abnormal when the engine is in a lapped state where the engine is apt to change speed than when in a green state where the engine is hardly changeable in speed.
