Abstract

In the control method and apparatus of a direct injection gasoline engine, as for the uniform charge combustion mode performing only the intake stroke injection and the stratified charge combustion mode performing only the compression stroke injection, the injection timing is determined by referring to the injection timing map set for each mode. On the other hand, in the double injection mode performing the intake stroke injection and the compression stroke injection, the injection timing map for the intake stroke injection and the injection timing map for the compression stroke injection are both equipped, and the injection timing in the intake stroke injection is determined by the fuel quantity being injected by the intake stroke, and the injection timing in the compression stroke injection is determined by the fuel quantity being injected by the compression stroke.
