    The Bosch L-Jet has two identical inductive pickup sensors on the bellhousing.  One reads a trigger pin for TDC.  The other reads the teeth off the flywheel for engine rpm.

    As far as I know, the Motronic Spider has no sensors on the flywheel.  There is a single sensor on the crank pulley that reads both TDC ( from the missing teeth) and engine rpm (from the teeth that aren't missing).
