As shown by the solid line in FIG. As a result, the generation of deposit around the injection hole of the injector 6 is suppressed.
- a predetermined time is set to, for example, a time required for temperature reduction of the injector 6 through execution of feed pressure reduction control. If an affirmative determination is made in S303, a stop process for stopping the engine 1 is executed (S304). Specifically, the operation of the engine 1 is stopped by stopping the fuel injection from the injector 6.

- the temperature drop control is performed through the first to third fuel supply control routines, and thereby the temperature of the injector 6 is lowered, so that the heat transfer around the injection hole of the injector 6 is reduced.
- the heat transfer around the nozzle hole of the injector 6 is reduced, the area around the nozzle hole of the injector 6 is less likely to be placed in a high-temperature environment. Therefore, the deposit around the nozzle hole of the injector 6 is reduced. Generation is suppressed.
- the same feed pressure when the fuel adjusted to the feed pressure is supplied to the injector 6 is adjusted through normal feed pressure control.
