Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19860452A1] The invention relates to an ignition system for an internal combustion engine with at least one cylinder. Said system comprises a detection device for detecting the misfirings of each cylinder and a calculation device which for each cylinder has at least one corresponding misfiring counter. If a misfiring is detected in one cylinder during a revolution of the internal combustion engine the number indicated by said counter is increased in accordance with the total number of misfirings detected in all cylinders during the preceding revolution of said internal combustion engine.
