A method for controlling the combustion in the individual cylinders of a Brennkr aftmaschine

A method for controlling the combustion in the individual cylinders of an internal combustion engine having provides a position sensor (34), the position signals at predetermined rotational angular points of a engine crankshaft (36), wherein the predetermined rotational locations are at regularly spaced rotation angles such that at least a position signal during each working cycle appears; and a control unit (50) which is connected to the position sensor (34), and a first time period (T1i) measures the rotation about a first rotation interval (θ1-θ2), which is defined by first selected position signals separated from each other by a first rotation angle are separated, and a second time period (T2i) measures the rotation through a second rotation interval (θ3-θ4) which is defined by second selected position signals separated by a second rotation angle, and a third time period (dt) of the rotation between measuring the first and second rotation intervals, each of said first and second rotation intervals contains a selected power stroke when the crankshaft is rotated via at least one machine cycle, wherein a machine cycle, a plurality of working clocks ...
