TRANSISTORISED IGNITION PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION The plug spark is triggered by distributor (1) which comprises a coil located inside the field of a magnetic circuit permanent magnet. The magnetic circuit has four fixed branches and four movable branches driven by the tor shaft. When the movable branches, in their rotation, come opposite the fixed ones, a variation of the magnetic field is brought and current is induced into the sensor winding.
