Abstract
A control device is provided for a compression ignition engine, which controls so that partial compression ignition combustion of A/F-lean mixture gas is carried out in a specific range where an engine load is low. In a first range of the specific range, a normal ignition in which sparks are generated in a late period of compression stroke or an early period of expansion stroke to start SI combustion, and a preceding ignition in which sparks are generated at a timing included in intake stroke or compression stroke and earlier than the normal ignition by a given amount or more are performed, and fuel is injected at a timing where fuel is present before the preceding ignition inside the combustion chamber. In a high-load side second range of the specific range, at least the normal ignition is performed and the execution of the preceding ignition is limited.
