Abstract
A spark ignition system for a vehicle has a memory device receiving inputs representing engine parameters and producing an output representing the crankshaft position at which a spark is to be produced. This output is compared with a signal representing the actual crankshaft position starting from a datum position, and a common transducer is used to provide the required engine speed signal and crankshaft position signal.
