- these logic coefficients are corrected as follows during engine operation. That is, when it is necessary to correct the logic coefficient, the fuel injection amount delay control is executed.
- This fuel injection amount delay control refers to the target fuel injection amount set at the time when the fuel injection amount delay control is started (hereinafter referred to as “delay control start time”).
- the control is used for controlling the fuel injection valve when the fuel injection amount delay control ends (hereinafter, this time point is referred to as “delay control end time”). Therefore, when the fuel injection amount delay control is executed, the reference fuel injection amount is acquired from the map of FIG. 3A based on the accelerator pedal depression amount at the start time of the control (that is, the delay control start time).

Therefore, the prefetch logic can calculate the prefetch value with a small calculation load. Then, since the logic coefficient of the target value setting logic is corrected using the pre-read value thus calculated, as a result, the logic coefficient of the target value setting logic, and hence the target value setting logic, is reduced to a small calculation load. It can be corrected with.
