Italian term or phrase: Sensore di riferimento cilindro
Here's some (rather poor) context consisting of subsequent phrases:

P1008 Sensore di riferimento cilindro
Saltuariamente il motore si spegne su strada.
Spegnimento del motore in marcia.

I could translate it literally with cylinder reference sensor, but that doesn't say much, does it?

Does anyone know what this is?

Thanks.

Explanation:
In computer-controlled fuel injection and ignition, it should not be hard to envision a subroutine which needs to reference individual cylinders individually.
