The device has an engine air inlet temp. sensor and an engine speed sensor and a device for controlling the engine timing according to the air inlet temp. signal and engine speed signal. There is a sensor for a demanded engine speed input parameter; the timing can also be controlled according to the demanded speed input value. The spark ignition engine has an electronic ignition system, whereby the electronic ignition system's timing is controlled according to the air inlet temp. signal and the engine revolution rate signal.
