Right. It doesn't care at all about the valves other than which cylinder
is on the compression stroke. And once it gets initial sync between hall sender
and timing sensor, it can run without the hall sensor, though it can get
confused as to the current cylinder. All the current cylinder number is
used for at this point is to index a lookup table of values which are used
to determine whether a cylinder is knocking, so a flaky hall sensor can
cause knock to be indicated when there is none.
