This is an electronic static twin-spark unit, with power module inside control unit (ECU) and lacking a distributor. It is fitted with two ignition coils with dual high tension outlets connected directly to the spark plugs of cylinders 3-2 and 4-1 respectively.
Each primary circuit is connected to the battery voltage through the system power relay - with ignition switch turned to MAR -and earthed directly by the injection-ignition control unit to which the two primary windings are connected (via terminals 1 and 19 respectively).
The spark plug (connected in line with high tension circuit) is supplied at a very high voltage when, upon the spark, the pressure inside the cylinder is high (compression stage) and gives a very low voltage when the pressure is low (exhaust stage).
The ignition advance angle, governed by the injection-ignition ECU, alters according to engine rpm and inlet manifold pressure level - according to tables memorized in the control unit - and is corrected in accordance with the following parameters: coolant temperature; sudden changes in idle speed; pressure changes; return from cut-off; excessive engine rpm and during start-up.
