A method of controlling start of an internal combustion engine is provided. By the method, supply of fuel and ignition are suspended at the beginning or initial stage of cranking and started for the first time when a cranking speed has become a predetermined value. In a modified embodiment, a time elapsing from the starting of the cranking is measured, and supply of fuel and ignition are started when the time elapsing from the staring of the cranking has become a predetermined value, though the cranking speed does not become the predetermined value. The predetermined value can be altered depending upon battery voltage and coolant temperature. A device for carrying out the method is also provided.

A temperature and pressure detecting type spark plug has a metallic shell having a mounting seat around an outer surface of the shell. The plug further has a center electrode which is placed into a tubular insulator.The center electrode has a hollow portion to enclose a thermocouple to detect a temperature of the front end of the center electrode.An annular pressure sensor is placed at the mounting seat of the metallic shell to detect a pressure within a combustion chamber in a cylinder head. The pressure sensor is arranged to be sandwiched between the mounting seat and the cylinder head when the spark plug is secured to the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine.

A detector device for mixing ratio for gasoline and alcohol include an optically permeable column, one end of which is coated with a light-reflective layer. The circumferential surface of the column is at least partly immersed in mixing liquid of gasoline and alcohol.The light beams enter the column to be incident on said circumferential surface of the column and reflect from the circumferential surface to be incident on said light reflective-layer to reflect therefrom. The reflected light beams impinge on a photo diode which outputs in accordance with the intensity of the light beams impinged.The diametrical and lengthwise dimension of the column being determined such as to provide incidence angles of the reflected light beams changing from a minimum angle corresponding to the critical angle when the mixing liquid ratio is at the lower limit of the predetermined range to a maximum angle corresponding to the critical angle when the mixing liquid ratio is at the upper limit of the predetermined range.
