The ignition control module is a crucial component of a vehicle's ignition system. It is a control unit responsible for regulating the ignition timing and generating sparks to ignite the fuel-air ...

From high-voltage EV safety to pinpointing faulty ignition coils or diagnosing TIPM failures, electrical know-how can save drivers time, money, and headaches. Understanding the right tools, safety ...

[Dan] wanted to learn a bit about solid state ignition in engines; to get started he needed a test subject, so he decided he would upgrade his old 12 horsepower lawnmower. Originally the lawnmower ...

An ignition coil is a vital component of a vehicle's ignition system. It is responsible for converting the low voltage from the battery into the high voltage needed to produce sparks at the spark ...

High performance is all about horsepower. But even the ultimate in heads, compression, cam, and the rest won’t make power if you can’t light the fire. Ignition systems don’t make horsepower, but a ...

At 7,000 rpm, a spark plug ignites the air/fuel mixture nearly 60 times per second. Any one of those 60 sparks going amiss can at best be mildly annoying, and at worst cost you a race or an engine.

The P0351 code means your engine control module (ECM) has detected a malfunction in the ignition coil “A” primary/secondary circuit, which corresponds to cylinder 1 on most engines. When this circuit ...

What’s the fastest way to a mental breakdown in your garage, and why is it an ignition issue? No doubt, that stress headache comes on strong when your car was running a minute ago, whereas now it’s ...

A windings road:It all starts with the concepts of inductance and electromagnetism. Inside an ignition coil there are two sets of wire windings (aka coils, that's why it's called a "coil," get it?).

Back in the day when we knew where most components came from Delco was manufacturing new distributors in the heart of Indiana. In fact, most components encompassing new Corvettes and other fullsize ...

Ignition coils play a crucial role in a vehicle’s ignition system. They serve to convert the battery’s low voltage into the high voltage necessary to fire the spark plugs. If there’s any malfunction ...
