Abstract
An engine control apparatus and method in which when an injector malfunction is determined based on a difference in variation of angular velocity of a crankshaft between a plurality of cylinders of a vehicle engine, determining whether the injector malfunctions by avoiding the time when the driving torque of an air compressor is applied or at the time when the influence thereof is reduced, thereby preventing the erroneous determination of whether the injector malfunctions from occurring due to the driving torque of the air compressor connected to the vehicle engine.
