Electronic Ignition System

Distributor ignition system signals the engine speed of movement and position of the pistons from the crankshaft position sensor and the sensor Camshaft position, respectively. The second in most cases is located in the distributor or the engine head. At the appropriate time during compression in the cylinder, the PCM sends a STE called to the ignition module. This in turn will activate the transistor inside the module, which sends electrical current through the primary winding of the ignition coil. The optimal time for the ignition occurs, the PCM disables the STE signal and hence, the transistor off current flow through the primary winding.

The magnetic field will collapse, will induce an instant download high-voltage electric current induced, it travels through the secondary coil wire and then the coil wire, then the distributor cap, once the rotor and from there to the domestic terminal at which the rotor points, continue along the power line, will reach the spark plug, fuel burn and finally hit land. The position of the rotor determines the cylinder that receives the spark. Firing order The firing order you will find guides and manuals of the manufacturer. Although there are exceptions, the vast majority of manufacturers identify the cylinder as follows: a) The numbering of cylinders in V-8 engines, odd-numbered cylinders are on the left bank of cylinders and pairs on the right bank. b) The numbering of cylinders in V-6 engines, odd-numbered cylinders are on the left bank of cylinders and pairs on the right bank.
