Ignition: Primary Voltage Waveforms

[@TheGibby3340]

This presentation is very well done. Thank you Sir 👍🍻

[@davesales3129]

That was very good and I thank you. Years back when GM began using HEI, I learned that disconnecting plug wires would usually blow a hole through the center of the rotor. The hole could be seen when holding the rotor up to a light source. Although the car would run, it did so quite poorly. 🖖🏻🍀

Liked the string theory , brilliant presentation.

This guy is more valuable than a bar of gold! He explained everything i needed to know about switching and control side and healthy spark lines covering all of this information in only about 20 minutes: EXPLAINS PRECISE DETAILS OF PRIMARY WAVEFORM INCLUDING DWELL, FIRING LINE, SPARK LINE, LENGTH OF SPARK LINE, THE EFFECT OF RESISTANCE ON FIRING LINE, WHEN THE CIRCUIT IS SWITCHED ON, WHEN THE CIRCUIT IS SWITCHED OFF, TESTING CURCUIT VOLTAGE "REQUIREMENT", TESTING CURCUIT VOLTAGE "AVAILABLE", CURRENT LIMITING CIRCUITS, ETC. THIS GUY IS GOLDEN!

I wanted to say something similar but you said it better. This is the best video I've seen on the subject. Zero waste of time.

13:25 Does the primary ignition voltage waveform provide the same diagnostic information as the secondary ignition voltage waveform? I mean, they look the same.

[@TonyMesiti-im1kv]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. What affordable oscilloscope would you recommend?

[@victorpecina7137]

Pretty well explained💯💯

Nice job 👍🏼 ! Excellent teaching techniques ! Super helpful . Thanks !

[@edwardlara1011]

This guy really knows how to teach. He has a very good delivery technique. He covers all the bases and he's easy to follow. Thank you, and keep up the good work.

Thank you for helping me understand Primary Voltage waveforms, I'm a student learning how to be an AutoTec. This video reallt helped.

Really great video and very transferable to the traditional 'points & condenser' type systems that I often work on. I have a question also.....based on a 12v system, +ve earth, dynamo, 6 cylinder vehicle, 36 deg dwell angle, 3.0 Ohm coil. On one vehicle, when running I noted approx 12.4v at the +ve terminal of the ignition coil and only 6v at the negative terminal, both versus earth from the battery. To me this seems like a huge voltage drop of over 6v, I'd normally only expect to see perhaps a 2v drop. What are your thoughts on these values? Does it suggest that there is something wrong and arccing to earth somewhere? Many thanks....

Me being me, I have at least a hundred questions, but hands down, any tech that has a scope and wants to analyze ignition waveforms needs to watch this video.

[@chrisbrown3925]

Excellent explanation!

[@lodhiautos9761]

Excellent video, describing everything about the waveforms in the ignition system. Thanks.

[@brentpoole5689]

Great video you explain it very well. Thank you for sharing your knowledge👍

[@ThunderbirdRocket]

Can you please make more training videos ?

[@luigigonzalez5062]

Great explanation! Any idiot can understand I did hahahaha

[@joepadilla7173]

Great lesson

[@WhisperWinds-jh8hj]

Awesome

[@DJ-tn7vj]

Great video

The spark line changes with engine load. You're only looking at it with the engine idling. As you increase load it gets shorter to the point where there's a misfire due to insufficient time.

[@FourthWayRanch]

what do you think the pickup voltage output is on a motorcycle magneto? how can you simulate this to make an ignition tester?

[@oraciorobles3328]

I appreciate you buddy! Thank you 🙏🏻 so much.

Is it safe to say on a distributor setup that when timing advances it would require more energy to jump the larger gap between rotor tip and contact pole in cap? I'm trying to figure out why I am getting a misfire/pop in exhaust at very lite load and basically full advance.
