Abstract: When executing a Local-learning, an air-fuel ratio detecting time is corrected so that a dispersion of detection values of an air-fuel ratio sensor becomes a maximum value in one cycle of an engine. While executing a cylinder-by-cylinder air-fuel ratio control, a Global-learning is executed. In the Global-learning, the air-fuel ratio detecting time is corrected based on a relationship between a variation in estimated air fuel ratio of each cylinder and a variation in fuel quantity correction value of each cylinder. In the Global-learning, a computer computes a correlation coefficient between the variation in estimated air-fuel ratio and the variation in fuel quantity correction value of the cylinder for each case where the cylinder assumed to correspond to the estimated air fuel ratio is hypothetically varied in multiple ways. Then, the air-fuel ratio detecting time is corrected so that this correlation coefficient becomes a maximum value.

Abstract: An individual cylinder air-fuel ratio estimation of estimating an air-fuel ratio of an individual cylinder is performed on a sensed value of an air-fuel ratio sensor set in an exhaust gas collection part of an engine, and an individual cylinder air-fuel ratio control of controlling the air-fuel ratio of the individual cylinder is performed in such a way that a variation in the air-fuel ratio between the cylinders becomes small on the basis of an estimated air-fuel ratio of the individual cylinder.
