ACCEL of Electrodes has always utilized unique electrode grounding designs to improve combustion and create a larger spark. Core or Center Benefits Include: Electrode • Allows spark to expand directly above the midpoint of the electrode core – preventing the spark from being shrouded by the ground strap. • Gives the flame an unblocked area to grow – creates a larger flame front for a more complete burn. • Reduces excess heat absorption of the electrode and ground strap, also known as the “quenching effect”, which leads to misfiring, rough idle and overall poor performance. • Produces a larger spark nucleus without having to increase the spark gap. • Creates a more complete burn of the air-fuel mixture resulting in -Increased performance, improved throttle response, greater fuel efficiency and re- duced emissions. 14mm Thread, .460” Reach, Tapered Seat, 5/8ths Hex, Projected Tip, C-Cut ground electrode, Non-Resistor, Set of 4 .......................................................................0276S-4 14mm Thread, .750” Reach, Flat/Gasket Seat, 5/8ths Hex, Projected Tip, C-Cut ground electrode, Resistor, C-CUT DESIGN Set of 4 .......................................................................0414S-4 14mm Thread, .750” Reach, Flat/Gasket Seat, 5/8ths Hex, Projected Tip, C-Cut ground electrode, Resistor, Set of 4 .......................................................................0416S-4 14mm Thread, .375” Reach, Flat/Gasket Seat, 13/16ths Hex, Projected Tip, C-Cut ground electrode, Resistor, Set of 4 .......................................................................0437S-4 14mm Thread, .460” Reach, Tapered Seat, 5/8ths Hex, Projected Tip, C-Cut ground electrode, Resistor, Set of 4 .......................................................................0574S-4 14mm Thread, .460” Reach, Tapered Seat, 5/8ths Hex, Projected Tip, C-Cut ground electrode,Resistor, Set of 4 .......................................................................0576S-4 Platinum, 14mm Thread, .708” Reach, Tapered Seat, 5/8ths Hex, Projected Tip, Resistor, Sold Individually .........................................................P526S 14mm Thread, .375” Reach, Flat/Gasket Seat, 13/16ths Hex, Projected Tip, C-Cut ground electrode, Resistor, Set of 8 .............................................................................8197 14mm Thread, .460” Reach, Tapered Seat, 5/8ths Hex, Projected Tip, C-Cut ground electrode, Resistor, Set of 8 .............................................................................8198

  • HEI System - Description and Diagnosis Chart
    HEI System - Description and Diagnosis Chart No. T -36 February, 1978 The High Energy Ignition System (HEI) In 1974 General Motors began equipping passenger cars and light trucks with an electronic ignition system called High Energy Ignition (HEI). The HEI is different in many ways from the previously standard breaker-point ignition system . ^ Higher available secondary voltage of 35,000 volts. ^ The secondary spark plug wires are larger diameter with silicone rubber insulation. This type of wire minimizes cross firing or arching between wires. The silicone insulation is softer than rubber insulation, so wires should be routed to avoid chafing on the engine or accessories. The insulation should never be punctured with sharp tools. The boots fit tightly on the spark plug insulators and are thus sometimes difficult to remove from the spark plugs. Tools are available from several tool companies to make removal easier. ^ Distributor cap and rotor are made of special material to handle the higher secondary voltage. ^ An internal condenser is for reducing radio interference and is not a normal replacement item. ^ There is no resistance wire or ballast resistor between the ignition switch and the coil. The system operates on full battery voltage. Zoom Sized for Print ^ The ignition coil is mounted in the distributor cap on most engines. Figure 1. ^ Some 4-cylinder and L-6-cylinder ignition coils are mounted outside of the distributor but are different in appearance from previously standard ignition coils. Zoom Sized for Print ^ Breaker points are no longer used, so point maintenance and replacement is eliminated. Instead of breaker points, a magnetic pickup and an electronic module are used.

The distributor itself has no centrifugal advance mechanism or devices. The spark plug wires are a carbon-impregnated cord conductor with a silicone rubber jacket. It is important they be handled with care, and routed so as not to cross each other or to be in contact with other parts of the engine to prevent rubbing. The EST System uses a square coil with epoxy covered windings to protect against mois- ture and arc-over.

Website www.autocar-electrical.com Copyright ©2006 Autocar Electrical Equipment Co. Ltd. London UK No unauthorised editing or copying permitted Lumenition Ignition System Description Lumenition optically-switched contact breaker replacement ignition systems consist of two basic models, the Optronic ignition system and the Performance Ignition system. The installation of both systems is straight forward and easily reversible, involves no specialist tools and is normally completed in less than an hour. Both systems replace the distributor contact breakers with an optical switch (using a separate, distributor-specific fitting kit) and an external power module. The same distributor-specific fitting kit is used for both models and the optical switches differ only in the connectors used with the different power modules (see below) The system works by creating a beam of light inside the distributor which is broken by a fan-like part (called a chopper) fitted over the distributor cam. As the distributor cam rotates, the chopper breaks the beam of light and the optical switch and external power module fires the coil.
