Are ignition coils sold separately?
Pencil ignition coils and blocks are sold individually and in sets, so if you’re after a coil pack, specify it by selecting the specific type in the design category.
How does an ignition coil connect to a distributor?
The ignition coil is the part of your engine that produces high voltage in order to power your cylinders. The distributor is what gets that high voltage from the coil to the right cylinder. The connection is accomplished through a cap and rotor. The ignition coil connects to the rotor, and the rotor spins around inside the cap.
What is the secondary circuit of a spark plug?
The secondary circuit includes the secondary winding of the ignition coil, spark plugs, and on some vehicles a distributor and/or spark plug wires. The ignition coil transforms the 12 volts from the battery to 15,000-40,000 volts needed by the spark plugs.
Why does the ignition coil fail on a two stroke engine?
The ignition coil or module for a two-stroke engine regulates the ignition power, and converts it to charging electricity for the battery system. When the module and coil begin to fail, it’s typically because the units have been burned out. The result will be an engine that performs badly, if it starts at all.

How does coil failure affect a distributor ignition system?
When a coil failure occurs on a distributor ignition system, it affects all the cylinders. The engine may not start or it may misfire badly when under load. But with multi-coil ignition systems, a single coil failure will only affect one cylinder (or paired cylinders in the case of waste spark DIS systems).
