Abstract

See full text

The reference valve timing for an intake valve and an exhaust valve are set based on operating conditions such as an engine load, an engine rotation speed and the like. A cold state of the engine is detected, and when an air-fuel ratio is set to lean during the cold state, the valve timing of the intake and exhaust valves are controlled so that the opening timing of the exhaust valve is retarded with respect to the reference valve timing while reducing a valve overlap amount.
