Kinda nifty:
Kind of odd his plug fires on the exhaust stroke. But I guess that's not uncommon in smaller engines. Makes the timing a lot easier.
With variable timing engines cam sensors are required, just about every new car has a cam sensorIt's not uncommon at all on all sizes of engines. These days, it's the oddball that doesn't have waste spark ignition. Basically, those that still have distributors, and some coil-on-plug designs driven by a cam sensor. Most cars don't even have cam sensors anymore, as you can reuse the crank sensor for timing in a waste spark system.

Cam sensor also syc's the fuel injection to the intake events on engines that have sequential fuel injection or direct fuel injection.
Duplicate thread.
What I find most interesting is that both of you independently described it as "nifty".
WAY too much heat.How about a video showing variable valve timing in action?
Nifty .. too Leave It To BeaverIt's a careful word without much meaning. LOL
Neat-o sounds too old.
Cool is overused.
Groovy... too Austin Powers.
Wicked... too 80's.
Amazing... save that one for something that really is.
Heh.

When I was a kid we had one of these:

I probably took it apart and "rebuilt" it a thousand times.
