In starting the engine, if it is determined that large cams are not completely prepared for all driving cams, valve closing timings of all intake valves are changed by driving the VVT so that all of the cylinders have equal in-cylinder filling efficiency. A fuel injection amount of each cylinder is determined by a feedforward control assuming that the large cams are completely prepared for all of the driving cams. When the valve closing timing of all of the intake valves are changed by driving the VVT to equalize the in-cylinder filling efficiencies of all of the cylinders, all of the cylinders have substantially equal in-cylinder air-fuel ratios.
