A method of determining the acceleration of a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine including one or more cylinders, with respect to each combustion event, n, among a plurality of combustion events, includes a) providing a signal indicative of crankshaft speed, with the signal including a series of minima and maxima speeds with respect to each successive combustion event and b) determining the acceleration of the crankshaft of the internal combustion engine with respect to each combustion event, n, among the plurality of combustion events, based on an initial speed value of a minima, Min (n) just before the combustion event, n, and a subsequent speed value of a maximum, Max (n) immediately subsequent to the combustion event, n, in addition to a speed of a minima for a subsequent combustion event, Min (n+1).
