Abstract
An air-fuel ratio control system, has an air-fuel ratio feedback control for feedback controlling an-air-fuel ratio of a mixture to be supplied into an engine based on a parameter detected from an exhaust gas discharged from the engine so as to set said air-fuel ratio to a target air-fuel ratio in an internal combustion engine. Vaporized fuel is supplied from a fuel tank to the engine. During an initial interval, the supply of vaporized fuel gradually increases. Learning an updating of a control value are accomplished in the feedback control based on a deviation of the air-fuel ratio from the target air-fuel ratio during supply of the vaporized fuel. Upon a resumption of supply of vaporized fuel, a learned value setting arrangement gradually changes the learned control value from zero (0) to a learned control value obtained during a preceding period of supply of vaporized fuel according to a gradually increasing amount of supply of vaporized fuel over a given interval.
