Abstract
In an internal combustion engine equipped with an electronic throttle control device for electrically driving a throttle valve, a control apparatus includes failure detecting means for detecting a failure of the electronic throttle control device, and control means for limiting fuel supply to the engine when the failure detecting means detects a failure of the electronic throttle control device, if the rotating speed of the engine becomes equal to or higher than a predetermined value.
