Automotive Accessories : Spark Plug Voltage Stabilizer
* for Petrol/Gasoline vehicles
The spark [at the spark plug] is fundamental to cause ignition and thus combustion of the Air/Fuel mixture.
Spark at the spark plug is created by a high voltage that comes from the ignition coil.
The +12 Volt car battery is the main power source to many users of a vehicle; i.e.
* air conditioner
* head-lights
* wipers
* hi-fi and radio
* other electrical items, etc
As such, consistent supply cannot be guaranteed to the ignition coil via the +12 Volt Car Battery. When this happens, the spark may be too small to cause burning of the Air/Fuel mixture, or mis-firing, causing 100% unburn fuel to be released to the environment through the exhaust system.
This is also true when the vehicle is running at high rpm, and sparkings has to take place in shorter interval. So, when the car battery is not able to consistently supply the same power to the ignition coil, smaller or no sparking will occur.
Concept of Work
The Spark Plug Voltage Stabilizer is installed at the front of the ignition coil(s).
The Spark Plug Voltage Stabilizer concept of work is to take residual energy from the car and make it into good use. It relies less of the car battery in supplying the require power to the ignition coil. Revolutionary circuit design allows more Sparks.And this is achieved through a much higher Voltage delivery to the spark plugs.
* Impact of Optimized sparks
o Reducing unburn fuel will improve Fuel Consumption; because of less wastage [unburn fuel].
o The result of better burning improves car response, increasing power to the vehicle.
Types of Ignition Coils
The Spark Plug Voltage Stabilizer works on all different types of Ignition Coil Designs.
Earlier car design has the ignition coil as a separate unit. It is then connected to a 'distributor unit' which will sequence the high voltage generated to the respective spark plug.
Current design for single ignition coil system is called the 'Built-In Coil'. This houses both the Ignition Coil and Distributor as one unit.
* Single Coil - works with a separate Distributor unit
* Built-In Coil - Ignition Coil and Distributor unit in one
* Multi Coil; may be
o 2 Ignition coils
+ 1 Ignition coil to 2 spark plugs, or
+ 1 Ignition coil to 3 spark plugs [V6 engine]
o 3 coils
+ 1 Ignition coil to 1 spark plug, [3 cylinders engine eg. Perodua [Malaysia] or
+ 1 Ignition coil to 2 spark plugs [V6 engine]
o 4 coils
+ 1 Ignition coil to 1 spark plug [DIS - Direct Ignition Coil System, or Distributorles Ignition Coil System]
o More than 4 Coils, such as 6 coils (V6 engine), etc
Factors to better Fuel Consumption
There are many websites giving advice to improve fuel economy. Beside ensuring the vehicles at tip top conditions, the right foot is key! However, to attack the problem at the source; the Spark Plug Voltage Stabilizer has its merit.
Other products are available in the car accessories market to help in this area. Some of them, notably are :
*
o Voltage Stabilizer
o Magnet systems on the fuel line
o Fuel additives
o Cold Air Intake
o Special Air Filters
o Special Engine Oils
o Special Spark Plugs
o Highly Conductive Spark Plug Cables
o Your Right Foot, artificial or otherwise
*
o Latest product in the market : Patented composite material 'Titanium Ceramic' that influence the breaking up of clustered Air Molecules that allow easier combustion in the cylinder.
