ABSTRACT:
An engine combustion condition judging method for detecting a crank angle speed of a multiple cylinder engine, for judging a combustion condition of each of cylinders of the engine based on the detection of the crank angle speed, wherein the improvement includes the steps of setting a predetermined crank angle range selectively determined within a range between a crank angle at which a combustion substantially terminate in a given cylinder and another crank angle at which a combustion substantially start in the next cylinder for detecting a crank angle speed property, and judging the combustion condition based on said crank angle speed property within the predetermined crank angle range. The combustion condition can be obtained reliably so that an appropriate A/F control can be accomplished irrespective of the engine operating condition.
