Distributor Ignition System
INPUT/OUTPUT SIGNAL LINE
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ignition timing is controlled by the ECM to maintain the best air-fuel ratio for every running condition of the engine.
The ignition timing data is stored in the ECM. This data forms the map shown.
The ECM detects information such as the injection pulse width and camshaft position sensor signal. Responding to this information, ignition signals are transmitted to the power transistor.
e.g. N: 1,800 rpm, Tp: 1.50 msec A °BTDC
During the following conditions, the ignition timing is revised by the ECM according to the other data stored in the ECM.
- At starting
- During warm-up
- At idle
- When swirl control valve operates
- Hot engine operation
- During acceleration
