ABSTRACT:
In a double air-fuel ratio sensor system having two air-fuel ratio sensors upstream and downstream of a catalyst converter, a main air-fuel ratio correction amount is calculated in accordance with the output of the upstream air-fuel ratio sensor, and a sub air-fuel ratio correction amount is calculated in accordance with the output of the downstream air-fuel ratio sensor, thereby adjusting an air-fuel ratio using the two air-fuel ratio correction amounts. When the sub air-fuel ratio correction reaches a lean limit value, an ignition system is determined to be abnormal and a misfire may occur.
