A fuel cut-off operation is delayed until a predetermined delay time period elapses after a fuel cut-off condition is satisfied. During the delay period, the voltage for driving a fuel pump is gradually dropped to decrease the rotation speed of the fuel pump gradually. Thus, the discharge pressure of the fuel pump is low and hence the rise of a fuel pressure immediately after the fuel cut-off operation starts can be prevented. After the fuel cut-off condition, updating of a fuel pressure feedback correction amount is prohibited until the fuel cut-off operation terminates. In this manner, a feedback control immediately after the fuel cut-off operation terminates is executed by using the feedback correction amount used immediately before the fuel cut-off condition to prevent the drop of the fuel pressure immediately after the fuel cut-off operation terminates. Thus, the fuel pressure can be maintained at a target fuel pressure.
