ABSTRACT:
A solid state inductive ignition system for igniting the mixture in the cylinders of an associated engine with a spark of up to 48 to 50 KV occurring at the most desirable position of the pistons for maximum mileage and power with a minimum of undesirable exhaust emissions. Exceptionally wide spark plug gaps are used to aid in igniting extra lean mixtures. The invention includes a novel high voltage spark distribution system utilizing, if desired, a conventional diameter distribution cap while providing sufficient clearance between adjacent spark plug cable outlets to prevent crossfire. Multiple sparks are provided while cranking to insure the ignition of overly rich or lean mixtures and a constant dwell of extremely short duration is used when running to saturate the core of the ignition coil.
