Abstract
An engine-controlling device includes a coolant passage, a radiator, and a control valve. A coolant discharged from a pump circulates through the coolant passage. The radiator cools the coolant. The control valve includes a first valve that adjusts a flow rate of the coolant to be introduced into the radiator and that includes a valve member driven by an electric actuator, a second valve that is arranged in parallel with the first valve and that includes a valve member that is opened in accordance with a pressure or a temperature, and a malfunction-diagnosing unit that detects a valve-stuck malfunction of the first valve. An output of the engine is limited to an output equal to or less than a limiting value determined on a basis of a maximum flow rate of the coolant introduced into the radiator from the second valve when the valve-stuck malfunction of the first valve occurs.
