Abstract
An internal combustion engine control device has a torque increase amount obtaining section that obtains engine rotation speed fluctuation amount (output torque increase amount) caused with small quantity injection as a torque increase amount sensing value, an adaptation value setting section that variably sets an adaptation value used for engine control in accordance with a fuel property determined based on the torque increase amount sensing value, a confirmation injection control section that performs the small quantity injection again while the engine control is performed based on the set adaptation value, and an accuracy determination section that determines accuracy of fuel property determination result or the adaptation value based on whether a confirmation sensing value, which is the engine rotation speed fluctuation amount obtained when the confirmation injection control section performs the small quantity injection, is outside a predetermined range.
