Abstract
A twin ignition plug control system for an internal combustion engine by which two point ignition is switched to one-point ignition only when engine load is heavy and the engine is not being warmed-up. Since the control system according to the present invention is so configured that many elements or sections can be used in common with a convention fuel injection valve control system, without providing various sensors or detectors such as a vacuum sensor disposed with an intake manifold for detecting engine load, a clutch switch or a neutral switch for detecting engine idling, etc., it is possible to simplify the twin ignition plug control system and thus reduce the manufacturing cost. When a microcomputer is incorporated within the fuel injection valve control system, in particular, the present invention is advantageous.
