Abstract: A controller includes a P/L learning unit that performs P/L learning, a purge learning unit that performs purge learning, an air-fuel ratio learning unit that performs air-fuel ratio learning, and a storage unit that stores learning result. When the learning result of each learning process is not stored in the storage unit at the time of engine start, the P/L learning unit learns an injection characteristic of an in-cylinder injection valve through the P/L learning process whenever the in-cylinder injection valve performs the P/L injection and interrupts the P/L learning process before the P/L learning process is completed. The purge learning unit performs the purge learning process, and the air-fuel ratio learning unit starts the air-fuel ratio learning process provided that the P/L learning process is interrupted. The P/L learning unit then resumes the P/L learning process provided that the purge learning process is completed.

Abstract: An electronic control unit is configured to switch a drive mode of a first high-pressure fuel pump and a second high-pressure fuel pump, in accordance with an operating state of an internal combustion engine, either to a twin-drive mode, in which both the first high-pressure fuel pump and the second high-pressure fuel pump are driven, or to a single-drive mode, in which either one of the first high-pressure fuel pump and the second high-pressure fuel pump is driven. The electronic control unit is configured to determine whether or not a pump ambient temperature, which is the ambient temperature of the first high-pressure fuel pump and the second high-pressure fuel pump, is equal to or higher than a predetermined first temperature. In a case where the pump ambient temperature is equal to or higher than the first temperature, the electronic control unit turns ON a twin-drive mode request flag.
