  2. 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 ...

  3. Spark gap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spark_gap

    A spark plug.The spark gap is at the bottom. A spark plug uses a spark gap to initiate combustion.The heat of the ionization trail, but more importantly, UV radiation and hot free electrons (both cause the formation of reactive free radicals) [citation needed] ignite a fuel-air mixture inside an internal combustion engine, or a burner in a furnace, oven, or stove.

  4. Spark plug wires - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spark_plug_wires

    Spark plug wires (also called high tension leads) are electrical cables used by older internal combustion engines to transmit high-voltage electricity from the distributor to the spark plugs. Tension in this instance is a synonym for voltage .

  5. Electric spark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_spark

    A spark on a spark plug Lightning is a natural example of an electric spark. An electric spark is an abrupt electrical discharge that occurs when a sufficiently high electric field creates an ionized, electrically conductive channel through a normally-insulating medium, often air or other gases or gas mixtures.

    Spark plug lifespan was increased to at least 50,000 miles and points lifespan was greatly extended from 8,000 miles to at least 60,000 miles. Points lifespan became a factor of rubbing block (cam follower) wear and the life cycle of the spring with some lasting almost 100,000 miles. The Hyland unit was tolerant of varied points gaps.

    decision was not reached because of the fast money to be made, but to sustain the current price level while meeting domestic demand. We are already tempered to paying over $3.00 per gallon of gas when less than three years ago it was below $2.00 per gallon. No matter what happens, we all have to eat, stay warm and use energy for our shelter.

    The last image we have of Patrick Cagey is of his first moments as a free man. He has just walked out of a 30-day drug treatment center in Georgetown, Kentucky, dressed in gym clothes and carrying a Nike duffel bag.

  9. Delco ignition system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delco_ignition_system

    The breaker points (called "Contact breaker" in the figure) are an electrical switch opened and closed by a cam on the distributor shaft. This is timed so the points are closed for the majority of the engine cycle, allowing current to flow through the ignition coil, and are opened momentarily when a spark is desired.
