I heard a intersting story once about a detroit automaker and the
trouble design engineering had on this very same problem. When the
HV transformer would fire it would cause the processor to reset and
nothing practical could be done to fix the problem. The solution
was to accept the fact that this would happen and redesign the cpu's
watchdog/code to reset and run again, each time the plugs fires.
