Ignition Coils

Delphi Product has introduced 23 new ignition coils to its engine management product portfolio.

The new parts cover over 7.3 million vehicles including Audi, Chevrolet, Dodge, Hyundai, Ford, Honda and Jeep applications from 1991 to 2013.

Part numbers: GN10234, GN10396, GN10397, GN10398, GN10415, GN10416, GN10417, GN10418, GN10420, GN10422, GN10425, GN10426, GN10435, GN10443, GN10444, GN10446, GN10448, GN10451, GN10455, GN10457, GN10458, GN10507, and GN10509.

Ignition coils operate in a tough environment. Stresses created by vibration, temperature changes, and even the failure of spark plugs and other components can cause ignition coil wiring to break or short out. The insulation inside the ignition coil can also fail, causing energy to escape.

Delphi says it backs up its innovative ignition coil design with intelligent manufacturing. Delphi uses winding process techniques to control the length of wire between adjacent windings. That’s important because more length results in greater voltage differences, which can create more pressure that could break down the insulation and wire coating.

Delphi says its ignition coils are engineered to OE specifications. Delphi coils are designed and endurance tested to resist the common stresses that cause failure.

Delphi says it has analyzed the environment that ignition coils must withstand and is combating failure issues with high-quality design and materials. Delphi’s ignition coil is designed with proven materials, such as high quality wires and wire coating that resists the cracks, pin holes and imperfections that most often lead to failure issues.

Delphi uses an epoxy vacuum technique to reduce air bubbles in the epoxy, because having fewer air bubbles increases the epoxy’s insulating quality and reduces the chances of energy punch-through failures.
