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.

4. Ignition system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_system

   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.

5. Wasted spark system - Wikipedia

   Ignition system of a flat-twin Citroën 2CV. 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.
