Patent ID: 7000595

Claim:
A control system for use with a light duty combustion engine, said system comprising: an input coupled to an engine speed sensor for receiving an electronic speed signal representative of engine speed, a first output coupled to an ignition device for providing that device with an electronic ignition signal that affects the ignition timing of the engine, a second output coupled to a valve control device for providing that device with an electronic air/fuel signal that affects the air-to-fuel ratio of a combustible mixture being provided to the engine, and an electronic processing device coupled to said input for receiving said speed signal, coupled to said first output for providing said ignition signal, and coupled to said second output for providing said air/fuel signal, wherein said processing device is capable of determining said ignition signal and said air/fuel signal according to an independent operating sequence that is capable of being selected from a plurality of independent operating sequences by utilizing said speed signal.
