A method of determining the “phasing” of an internal combustion engine includes two banks of cylinders each supplied by its own intake manifold. This determining method consists, on the one hand, in equipping each intake manifold with an air flow meter and in measuring the air flow rate in each of the manifolds so as to detect an increase in the air flow rate in one of the manifolds representative of an intake of air into the bank of cylinders supplied by the manifold, and, on the other hand, in equipping one of the rotary members, crankshaft or camshaft associated with each bank of cylinders with a target that rotates as one with the rotary member and is able to determine which cylinder of the bank of cylinders determined to be in the intake phase is in the air intake phase.
