The control means detects changes in a blow-by gas pressure increase D1 and a blow-by gas increased amount for each cylinder, based on a pressure change B2 for each of the prescribed crank angle intervals. It is preferable to compare a maximum blow-by gas pressure increase in the neighborhood of the time of explosion for each cylinder detected during normal operation with a previously-set threshold blow-by gas pressure increase. If it is determined that the detected blow-by gas pressure increase is larger than the threshold blow-by gas pressure increase, it is recognized that an abnormal increase of a blow-by gas amount from a corresponding cylinder to the crankcase occurs.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
