An ignition system for hydrocarbon based fuels employing two energy sources ( 10, 16), one to create a spark, and the other to sustain the spark. The ignition system is based in pan on the principle of a strobe light circuit. The system increases ignition efficiency by increasing the power dissipated at a spark gap (14), particularly when used in conjunction with a surface gap spark plug. Maximum power transfer is achieved via impedance matching between a transformer (12) of the ignition system to the surface gap spark plug. The circuit is particularly appropriate for igniting extremely lean mixtures, highly diluted mixtures, and alternative fuels.
