You seem a guy with lots of engine experience. I need to ask you a question.
Please let me direct your attention to the second ignition circuit in my project folder.
My question is this: when current is running to the coil,
exactly what component breaks the connection in the coil circuit, that
the reverse HV feedback spike reaches the plugs? I know the
distributor turns, and the HV coil primary goes to the distributor
cap, but I assume the break in the coil's power must be between the
battery and ground, not the HV wire and the distributor.
Reason: I need to use that make-&-break contact for purposes illustrated.
My truck has the coil built into the cap, no points to change or condensor
that I can see.
This question goes out to anyone else who might know.
