Abstract: An object of this invention is to suppress the occurrence of pre-ignition by appropriately controlling a wall surface temperature of a combustion chamber based on a target temperature region in which the frequency with which pre-ignition occurs is reflected, without causing pre-ignition to actually occur. An ECU 50 acquires a wall surface temperature of a combustion chamber 14 or an engine water temperature or the like that correlates therewith as a wall temperature parameter. The ECU 50 is equipped with data for a pre-ignition suppression temperature region that is a region in which the pre-ignition occurrence frequency is smallest among temperature regions of the wall temperature parameter. In a pre-ignition susceptibility operating region A, the wall temperature parameter is controlled so as to fall within the pre-ignition suppression temperature region by operating a cooling water amount varying mechanism 38.
