When either one of two injectors of each cylinder becomes abnormal, a control device performs failsafe control of performing increase correction of injection quantity of a normal injector. If actual injection quantity is restricted with the maximum injection quantity that can be injected by the normal injector during the execution of the failsafe control, the control device restricts duty of an actuator of an intake air quantity adjustment mechanism (such as a throttle opening degree), thereby restricting intake air quantity to intake air quantity that does not cause melting damage of a catalyst. Thus, increase of deviation of an air-fuel ratio toward a lean side can be inhibited, and the melting damage of the catalyst can be prevented.
