A method of controlling the startup of an engine using a sensor having a reference index, commanding the rotation of the crankshaft, detecting the rotation of the crankshaft, selecting a group of cylinders for which the reference index is detected less than a half-turn of the crankshaft before the piston reaches the top dead center, before the inlet valves of the selected group of cylinders closes, commanding the injectors of the selected group of cylinders, detecting the reference index, and commanding the ignition element.
