<p>Combustion noises of the respective cylinders (1, 2, 3, 4) of the engine (10) are detected by a combustion noise sensor (15). An electronic control unit (ECU) (20) performs pilot fuel injections prior to main fuel injections to the respective cylinders through fuel injection valves (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d) and adjusts the pilot fuel injection amounts of the respective cylinders so that the combustion noises of the respective cylinders detected by the combustion noise sensor (15) are reduced. Further, the ECU (20) corrects the fuel injection amounts of the respective cylinders in accordance with the pilot fuel injection amounts of the respective cylinders in such a manner that the sum of the fuel injection amount and the pilot fuel injection amount becomes a same value in each cylinder. Since the total amount of fuel supplied to each cylinder becomes the same, the variation of torque among the cylinders does not occur. <IMAGE></p> |
