EG: * 4 cylinder engine requires 2 ignition outputs * 6 cylinder engine requires 3 ignition outputs -* 4 cylinder engine requires 4 ignition outputs +* 8 cylinder engine requires 4 ignition outputs Wasted Spark has the advantage of not requiring any cam signal or input as it does not need to know the engine phase. This is possible by firing the ignition outputs once per revolution and pairing that output to 2 cylinders that are both at TDC (With one cylinder on compression stroke and the other on exhaust)
