Injection – Ignition
The ignition - injection system is
controlled by a single microprocessor
electronic control unit (ECU). Engine
performance and fuel consumption are
both optimized, the former due an
improved car drivability and the latter
to a better engine operation with
partial loads.
Injection
– Bosch ME7.1.1 type
Ignition
– Static ignition
– Firing sequence: 1-8-6-2-7-3-4-5
– Bosch ignition coil
– NGK PMR8A spark plugs.
