1. Frequency of sorts

I had the opportunity to re-hab an old natural gas compressor that had
shaken itself apart. I noticed that it used a magnetic pickup on the
flywheel to control the engine/flywheel speed. Tiny magnets were mounted in
the flywheel with a coil fixed to the compressor base. The machine was
monstrous with a Cat engine that had 16 cylinders.
My questions are these:
How are the pulses used to control speed? Can someone point me to a circuit,
similar circuit or article explaining this process.
