Hi,

Can someone explain the principles of ‘Afterstart Ignition Lock’?

I.e why it may be desirable to lock the ignition angle for a brief period after the engine has just started?

Thanks, Dave.

I use it to have less variables when the engine is settling to it’s idle position. Could also be to help with Catalyst light-off time.

This also can make transition between cranking and idle/running state smoother.

Thanks chaps, I’ve just used it to solve a small dip in revs after the start.

Works well!

Dave.
