ABSTRACT:
A cylinder discriminating device includes a cylinder discriminating section. A crank rotor includes first and second non-tooth portions asymmetrically positioned on the crank rotor. The first non-tooth portion is positioned to correspond to a top dead center of a specific cylinder. A crank signal is outputted when each of the plurality of the tooth portions is detected. A cam signal is outputted when a predetermined tooth portion of a cam rotor is detected. And, the cylinder discriminating section discriminates the specific cylinder by detecting the first non-tooth portion based on number of the crank signals detected during a time period from a time when one of the first and second non-tooth portions is detected to a time when the other of the first and second non-tooth portions is detected, and by detecting whether or not the cylinder discriminating section detects the cam signal during the same time period.
