  2. General Motors ignition switch recalls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Motors_ignition...

    The ignition switch was designed to remove power from the vehicle's airbags when in the Off or Accessory mode. [11] Therefore, this was a safety hazard: If the switch changed from Run to Accessory and the vehicle was involved in an accident, it would no longer have power to release the airbags, and it would be difficult for the driver to steer ...

  3. Contact breaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_breaker

    The switch is automatically operated by a cam driven by the engine. The timing of operation of the switch is set so that a spark is produced at the right time to ignite the compressed air/fuel mixture in the cylinder of the engine. A mechanism may be provided to slightly adjust timing to allow for varying load on the engine.

  4. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_(engineering)

    The starter solenoid receives a large electric current from the car battery and a small electric current from the ignition switch. When the ignition switch is turned on (i.e. when the key is turned to start the car), the small electric current forces the starter solenoid to close a pair of heavy contacts, thus relaying the large electric ...

  5. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    A rod is connected to the center of the diaphragm so that it moves as the pressure is applied. The rod is then connected to a valve stem which allows the valve to experience the linear motion thereby opening or closing. A diaphragm actuator is useful if the supply pressure is moderate and the valve travel and thrust required are low.

    In 1981, a Delco Electronics ECU was used by several Chevrolet and Buick engines to control their fuel system (a closed-loop carburetor) and ignition system. [10] By 1988, Delco Electronics was the leading producer of engine management systems, producing over 28,000 ECUs per day.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_system

    The most famous aftermarket electronic ignition which debuted in 1965, was the Delta Mark 10 capacitive discharge ignition, which was sold assembled or as a kit. The Fiat Dino was the first production car to come standard with EI in 1968, followed by the Jaguar XJ Series 1 [ 9 ] in 1971, Chrysler (after a 1971 trial) in 1973 and by Ford and GM ...

  8. Starter (engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starter_(engine)

    An automobile starter motor (larger cylinder). The smaller object on top is a starter solenoid which controls power to the starter motor and engages the Bendix drive.. A starter (also self-starter, cranking motor, or starter motor) is a device used to rotate (crank) an internal-combustion engine so as to initiate the engine's operation under its own power.

  9. Ignition timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_timing

    Pressure in cylinder pattern in dependence on ignition timing: (a) - misfire, (b) too soon, (c) optimal, (d) too late. In a spark ignition internal combustion engine, ignition timing is the timing, relative to the current piston position and crankshaft angle, of the release of a spark in the combustion chamber near the end of the compression stroke.
