2. Dual ignition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_ignition

   Dual Ignition is a system for spark-ignition engines, whereby critical ignition components, such as spark plugs and magnetos, are duplicated. Dual ignition is most commonly employed on aero engines , [ 1 ] [ 2 ] and is sometimes found on cars and motorcycles.

3. Chrysler LA engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_LA_engine

   A 5.2L Magnum V8 as installed in a 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The 5.2 L Magnum, released in 1992, was an evolutionary development of the 318 cu in (5.2 L) LA engine with the same displacement. The 5.2 L was the first of the Magnum upgraded engines, followed in 1993 by the 5.9 L V8 and the 3.9 L V6.

4. Spark plug - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spark_plug

   Spark plug with single side electrode An electric spark on the spark plug. A spark plug (sometimes, in British English, a sparking plug, [1] and, colloquially, a plug) is a device for delivering electric current from an ignition system to the combustion chamber of a spark-ignition engine to ignite the compressed fuel/air mixture by an electric spark, while containing combustion pressure within ...

5. Wasted spark system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wasted_spark_system

   A wasted spark system is a type of ignition system used in some four-stroke cycle internal combustion engines. In a wasted spark system, the spark plugs fire in pairs, with one plug in a cylinder on its compression stroke and the other plug in a cylinder on its exhaust stroke. The extra spark during the exhaust stroke has no effect and is thus ...

6. Ignition magneto - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_magneto

   An ignition magneto (also called a high-tension magneto) is an older type of ignition system used in spark-ignition engines (such as petrol engines). It uses a magneto and a transformer to make pulses of high voltage for the spark plugs. The older term "high-tension" means "high-voltage". [1]

7. Ignition coil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_coil

   The spark plugs then use this burst of high-voltage electricity to ignite the air-fuel mixture. The ignition coil is constructed of two sets of coils wound around an iron core. Older engines often use a single ignition coil which has its output directed to each cylinder by a distributor , a design which is still used by various small engines ...
