2. High energy ignition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_energy_ignition

   A wider spacing was also needed between the cap, inserts and the distributor housing to prevent arc-over and leakage to ground. The higher voltage output of the HEI system required new insulation materials. To prevent ignition failure due to carbon tracking, a special material is used for the distributor cap and rotor.

3. Distributor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributor

   A distributor consists of a rotating arm ('rotor') that is attached to the top of a rotating 'distributor shaft'. The rotor constantly receives high-voltage electricity from an ignition coil via brushes at the centre of the rotor. As the rotor spins, its tip passes close to (but does not touch) the output contacts for each cylinder.

   Duraspark II distributor, cap and HT (high tension) wires. The Duraspark II is a Ford electronic ignition system. Ford Motor Company began using electronic ignitions in 1973 with the Duraspark electronic ignition system and introduced the Duraspark II system in 1976. The biggest change, apart from the control box redesign, was the large ...

5. Delco ignition system - Wikipedia

   The distributor rotor turns in time with the camshaft. When it is time for a spark plug to fire, the rotor (the blue bar shown in the distributor in the figure above) connects the center electrode of the distributor cap to an electrode connected to a spark plug wire. This occurs simultaneously with the points opening and the coil delivering a ...

   As batteries became more common in cars (due to the increased usage of electric starter motors), magneto systems were replaced by systems using an induction coil.The 1886 Benz Patent-Motorwagen and the 1908 Ford Model T used a trembler coil ignition system, whereby the trembler interrupted the current through the coil and caused a rapid series of sparks during each firing.

   An LN3 installed in a 1989 Pontiac Bonneville with a later ICM and Coilpack upgrade instead of the original Magnavox Ignition System. Introduced in 1988 and initially designated VIN code C, the 3800 LN3 would later be loosely considered the Pre-Series I , although the older 3.8 SFI (LG3) was still available that year in some models.
