Abstract

An ignition timing control system with an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system has a primary vacuum-advance mechanism operated by vacuum in an intake passage of an engine to advance the ignition timing of the engine, and a secondary vacuum-advance mechanism operated by vacuum in the intake passage to advance the ignition timing in addition to the operation of the primary vacuum-advance mechanism. A first solenoid operated valve is provided to render the secondary vacuum-advance mechanism inoperative. A second solenoid operated valve is provided for cutting off the EGR system. An electronic control unit responds to engine operating conditions in a low engine speed range except idling operation for closing the first and second solenoid operated valve to cut off the EGR system and to cut off the secondary vacuum-advance mechanism, thereby stopping the advancing of the ignition timing.
