Abstract:
A feed pump supplies fuel to a port injection valve of an engine through low pressure fuel piping by applying a pressure to fuel. An engine ECU controls a fuel pressure which is a pressure applied to fuel by driving the feed pump. When the feed pump is driven to lower the fuel pressure, and it is determined that vapor is generated in the fuel piping, the engine ECU executes a fuel pressure control that increases the fuel pressure provided at the time of determination.
