In a four-stroke cycle multi-cylinder internal combustion engine (2), a controller (1) controls fuel injectors (8) to inject fuel for the cylinder (#1) in the intake stroke immediately after the first cylinder-stroke identification is performed. Due to this fuel injection control, the fuel is necessarily injected before the first combustion occasion at any cylinder (#1-#4), cylinder dependent fluctuation of air-fuel ratio when the first combustion takes place in the respective cylinders (#1-#4) is prevented. Further, in a predetermined low temperature range, the controller (1) controls fuel injectors (8) to perform a preliminary fuel injection for all the cylinders (#1-#4) before the first cylinder-stroke identification, so the fuel amount required for the first combustion is ensured for all the cylinders (#1-#4).
