ABSTRACT:
A device for improving the ignition characteristic of an internal combustion engine and reducing the air pollutants discharged by such engine having electrical apparatus for applying an electrostatic charge into the combustion chambers of the engine including a pair of electrical energy conductors, and an induction block connected with the conductors for each of the spark plug wires of the engine each induction block having a longitudinal channel sized to receive a spark plug wire, a retainer for holding the block on the spark plug wire, first and second longitudinally spaced chambers partially encircling the spark plug wire channel in electrical insulated relationship from the channel, first and second electrically conductive plates positioned in the first and second chambers partially encircling the spark plug wire channel, conductive clamping means on each of the plates connecting each plate with one of the pair of conductors between the induction blocks, and removable cover means for holding the pair of electrical conductors with each induction block clamping the first and second plates in the first and second chambers of each block. One such induction block is installed on each spark plug wire of the engine. Current flowing to each firing cylinder of the engine induces an electrical potential in the plates of the induction block on the firing wire which potential on each plate is communicated to the corresponding plate of the induction block on the non-firing spark plug wires inducing an electrostatic potential on the plates around the non-firing spark plug wires to communicate the electrical potential into the non-firing cylinders improving the combustibility of the fuel in such cylinders.
