ABSTRACT:
An engine exhaust purification system is provided with a catalyst in an exhaust line, and oxygen sensors disposed in the exhaust line upstream and downstream from the catalyst, respectively. Deterioration of the catalyst is judged based on a frequency ratio of reversal of an output from the downstream oxygen sensor with respect to a threshold value to an output from the upstream oxygen sensor with respect to a threshold value. The threshold value of the deteriorated oxygen sensor is changed so as to vary the frequency ratio of reversal.
