Abstract
When an estimated alcohol concentration is higher than a specified concentration, an operation time of an engine is cumulated to obtain an alcohol cumulative operating time (ACOT). When the ACOT exceeds a specified time and a feedback correction quantity of a fuel injection quantity exceeds a specified quantity, a computer estimates that a deposit quantity exceeds a permissible value to notify the driver to refuel a fuel tank with gasoline. After fueling with gasoline, a cleaning agent contained in the gasoline removes the deposit accumulated on a fuel injector. As a result, a variation in fuel injection quantity due to deposit on the fuel injector can be avoided, and a deterioration in exhaust gas emission and drivability can be avoided.
