Abstract

See full text

An engine controller performs air-fuel ratio sub-feedback control in which a target air-fuel ratio is switched from a rich air-fuel ratio to a lean air-fuel ratio when a rear air-fuel ratio detected by an air-fuel ratio sensor becomes less than or equal to a rich determination value, and the target air-fuel ratio is switched from the lean air-fuel ratio to the rich air-fuel ratio when the rear air-fuel ratio becomes greater than or equal to a lean determination value. To perform the sub-feedback control, the controller variably sets the lean determination value to a value indicating a leaner air-fuel ratio when an amount of overshoot of the rear air-fuel ratio to a richer value than a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio after switching the target air-fuel ratio from the rich air-fuel ratio to the lean air-fuel ratio is relatively large than when the amount of overshoot is relatively small.
