Question 4
How many coils will there be in a typical Ford 4 cylinder system?
Question 5
In a 4 cylinder system, how many times will the crankshaft turn before
the same event cylinder fires again as an event cylinder?
Question 6
In a typical GM distributorless ignition system, where does the
camshaft sensor send its signal?
Coil
Advantages: Spark
No spark plug leads, therefore no RFI. plug
No mechanical wear due to moving parts.
