Jacobs is a tricky bastard. The only thing he patented was the actual physical
DESIGN of his ignition system. He didn't put anything about the control
system or the sensor capabilities into the patent. I went after the patent
specifically BECAUSE I wanted to know how he was using the spark plug as a
sensor and was very disappointed.
