An engine controller for a vehicle equipped with an emission reduction apparatus (22, 31, 33) determines whether the emission reduction apparatus has malfunction (S210, S220). When it is determined that the emission reduction apparatus has malfunction, an execution of an idle shutdown control process (S110-S190) is permitted. When a predetermined condition is established during an engine idling, the engine (10) is automatically shut down. On the other hand, when it is determined that the emission reduction apparatus has no malfunction, the execution of the idle shutdown control process is prohibited. |
