Understanding Automotive Ignition Systems

Front

Which of the following is a type of ignition system commonly used in modern vehicles? Magneto ignition system, Capacitor discharge ignition (CDI) system, Steam ignition system, Hydraulic ignition system

Back

Capacitor discharge ignition (CDI) system

Front

What is the primary function of an ignition coil in an automotive ignition system?

Back

To convert low voltage to high voltage

Front

Which component in the ignition system is responsible for igniting the air-fuel mixture in the engine's cylinders?

Back

Spark plug

Front

In a traditional ignition system, what role does the distributor play? Options: It generates the initial spark, It distributes high voltage to the spark plugs, It stores electrical energy, It controls the engine temperature

Back

It distributes high voltage to the spark plugs

Front

How does a spark plug create a spark?

Back

By allowing high voltage to jump across a gap

Front

Which of the following is NOT a type of ignition system? Distributor-less ignition system (DIS), Coil-on-plug ignition system, Electronic ignition system

Back

Hydraulic ignition system

Front

What is the typical voltage range that an ignition coil can produce to create a spark?

Back

5,000-45,000 volts

Front

In a coil-on-plug ignition system, where is the ignition coil located?

Back

Directly on top of each spark plug

Front

What is the main advantage of a distributor-less ignition system (DIS) over a traditional ignition system?

Back

It requires less maintenance
