16
Q

regulates the temperature of ignition coil by regulating current and voltage passing from it to avoid overloads

A

ballast resistor

16
Q

used to turn on and off the ignition system

A

ignition switch

17
Q

also known as spark coil
which transforms the battery low voltage into thousand volts

A

ignition coil

18
Q

it is made up of thick copper wire having 200 to 300 turns insulated from each other

A

Primary winding

19
it is made up of thin copper wire having large number of turns about 2,100 turns.
Secondary Winding
20
it consists of a laminated iron core. It is used to store energy in the form of magnetic field
iron core
21
is an enclosed rotating shaft used in spark ignition internal combustion engines that have mechanically timed ignition
distributor
22
drives the engine, it is a rotating object usually made of metal that contains pointed cams, which converts rotational motion to reciprocal motion
camshaft
23
is a type of electrical switch, and the term typically refers to the switching device found in the distributor of the ignition systems of spark ignition internal combustions engine.
contact breaker
24
is attached to a high tension cord which allows high voltage current to flow through the ignition system
terminal
24
this part insulates the terminal centre shaft and centre electrode from the housing
insulator
25
this spark plug component helps the insulator and the housing tightly fit each other and maintain airtightness
ring parking washer
26
makes the housing and the engine perfectly fit each other and also maintain
gasket
27
connects the terminal and the centre electrode
center shaft
28
located between the centre shaft and insulator to main the airtightness
glass seal
29
a special nickel alloy is employed at the cemtre electrode
electrode with copper
30
creates an outer shell that surrounds and supports the insulator
housing
31
to lower the spark voltage, secure reliable soarj improves ignition performance and reduces the quenching effect
central electrode
