Ignition arrangement for engine

An ignition arrangement for an internal combustion engine having an engine housing, an output shaft supported for rotation about an axis by said engine housing, said engine housing at least partially enclosing said output shaft and including at least one face through which a portion of said output shaft extends and is surrounded, a timing pulley affixed for rotation with said portion of said output shaft, a camshaft supported for rotation about a second axis by said engine housing, drive means connecting said timing pulley to said camshaft in spaced relation to said one engine housing face, whereby said output shaft drives said camshaft, a flywheel having a flange portion affixed for rotation with said portion of said output shaft in spaced relation to said one engine body end face and a flywheel portion extending radially outwardly from said flange portion, said timing pulley lying closer to said one face than said flywheel, said ignition arrangement including an ignition signal generator comprised of a first ignition means affixed for rotation with said timing pulley at a point disposed radially inwardly of said flywheel and a pulser coil supported in a fixed axial location relative to said first ignition means by said engine housing and juxtaposed for cooperation with said first ignition means for effecting an electrical output upon relative rotation between said first ignition mean and said pulser coil.
