Yep, but not a whole lot. In electronic igniton systems, the "old fashioned" points and condenser in the distributor have been replaced with non-mechanical timing for the firing of the ignition coil[s], and thus the plugs. The method for doing this is a "Hall Effect" transistor pickup sensor, which is "triggered" by a small magnet[s] passing by it. Sorry I can't give more detail. j3h.
