Engine Crank/Engine Running

During engine crank the PCM fires two spark plugs simultaneously. Of the two plugs fired, one is under compression while the other is on the exhaust stroke. Both plugs fire until camshaft position is identified by a successful CMP sensor signal. Once camshaft position is identified only the cylinder under compression is fired.
