ABSTRACT:
An engine control apparatus comprises a cylinder discrimination sensor for generating cylinder discrimination signal, a crank angle sensor for generating crank angle signal, a fuel injection valve provided in each cylinder of the engine, an ignition coil provided in correspondence to each and every cylinder, a flip-flop circuit for detecting a state of misfire in each cylinder on the basis of a state of signal of said ignition coil, and a micro-computer for receiving the cylinder discrimination signal, the crank angle signal and the output signal of the flip-flop circuit to detect that a state of misfiring has occured continuously at the same cylinder and for closing the fuel injection valve corresponding to the cylinder where the misfiring has occured.
