So, there are two kinds of engine timing, that take a seat in every engine.

The engine timing system synchronizes the motion, of the crankshaft and the camshafts. But, there are two kinds.

The first is called camshaft timing, and the second is ignition timing. Camshaft timing ( also known as, valve timing ) and ignition timing ( also know, as spark timing ) make the magic happen.
