Makes perfect sense, therefore basis of ignition timing is the engine speed sensor. It would seem that a faulty signal from the cam postion sensor would not set a misfire code but rather a faulty signal from the engine speed sensor would. As I understand it a misfire code (from a specific cylinder or multiple cylinders) is set by the ECU detecting a speed inconsistancy on any single revolution of the crank. Therefore this would seem to most likely be detected from the engine speed sensor.
Do you agree?
Any history of that sensor failing
