One of the contributing factors to the LS engine's success when it comes to performance and economy can be traced to its DIS (distributorless ignition system). By assigning an individual coil for ...

Engines need spark plugs to burn their air/fuel mixture, and the spark plugs need a jolt of electricity to do their work. Older cars with conventional distributor-based ignition systems did it by ...

Sudden misfires feel like the engine just lost its rhythm, yet the real drama often starts inside a failing coil pack. When ignition coils break down under heat, vibration, or age, they can turn a ...

A battery in a traditional car cannot directly create engine spark. It’s only rated at 12 volts, after all, so it needs a little help boosting the signal to the spark plugs. To make that happen, a car ...
