Engine Crank/Engine Running

During engine crank the PCM fires 2 spark plugs simultaneously. Of the 2 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.
