Assertion (A): Ignition timing should be retarded as engine speed rises.

Reason (R): Combustion takes roughly the same time regardless of engine speed.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

  • A.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • B.A is true but R is false
  • C.A is false but R is true
  • D.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

Answer: C

The reason is correct and it is precisely why the assertion is wrong: a fixed burn time occupies more crank degrees at speed, so the spark must occur earlier. Advance therefore increases with speed rather than decreasing. Reading the definition literally, rather than recalling a summary, avoids the usual confusion. The shared behaviour explains why these belong together and the differences explain why both exist. The order in which the effects act is what decides the outcome, so it is worth establishing first.
