Ignition coils work very much like a transformer; with a 12-volt power supply that produces an output current at the same time as the supplied input current. By creating an effective magnetic field, the strength of the electricity from the battery source is multiplied, allowing your engine to catch fire quickly. Different engines have specific ignition system characteristics designed to optimize engine performance while maintaining fuel economy. With prolonged use, regular ignition coils will require replacement; and you can restore the efficiency of your system by repairing your ignition coil immediately at the first sign of a problem.

Ignition coils are critical to the operation of your vehicle, quickly converting very low battery power into the thousands of volts of power needed to ignite your vehicle. Without this critical piece of equipment, you would have to push the car to make it catch fire. Fuel efficiency and overall engine performance deteriorate if you continue to use a failed ignition coil, so replace it at the first sign of a problem.

Here are some tips to make sure you have the best long lasting ignition coils:

  • Invest in a top quality ignition coil to ensure fast ignition: this is the best solution for quality engine performance.

  • The heavy duty ignition coil provides many miles of extra service and a much longer and more efficient life cycle.

  • You can purchase street or strip ignition coils that are best suited for race cars and are rated up to 55,000 volts, delivering significantly better performance than stock ignition coils. They provide better throttle response, increased gas mileage, and quicker, easier starts.

Find out the details of your vehicle's distributor as this may limit your choice at the parts store.
