The Hit and Miss i(H&M) method was probably the most common in early petrol/gasolene/kerosene engines and is by far the simplest of the two. To qualify as hit and miss the engine controls its speed by holding open the exhaust valve and possibly cutting off the ignition (spark) and sometimes holding the intake valve open too - although it is much more common for the intake valve to be an atmospheric suction valve which is held closed only by a spring and activated when the piston sucks in air. These engines make the sound most related to the Hit-and-miss style - the suction "fart".

If electrical spark combustion cycle was uncontrolled that leads to (H,M) cases or if electric spark distributor was not adjusted.
