What is the ignition timing spec and what is the ignition point dwell or point gap spec for a 1989 Dodge PowerRam 50 4X4 pickup?

timming just needs to be close the computer adjusts it to what it needs and the points are gone since the early 70's it is electronic with moduales, sensors and such


Main advantages and disadvantages between compression ignition and spark ignition engines?

A spark ignition engine is a gasoline engine. A compression ignition is a diesel engine.basic difference between compression and spark ignition engine is ,compression ignition is a diesel engine. spark ignition is a gasoline engine.diesel engines compress the fuel to a point where the fuel explodes, thus giving ignitiongasoline does not compress to explosion, therefore it needs need a spark to ignite the fuelspark ign. is gasoline. comp. ign. is diesel.A compression ignition engine is typically a diesel. It compresses air so much that the heat from the compression is enough to cause the fuel to ignited once injected. A spark ignition engine is your average gasoline-burning car engine. It uses a spark plug to ignite the air/fuel mixture instead of relying on compretssion ignition.A compression ignition engine uses very high compression of the air to heat it self up and the fuel is injected into the cylinder which self ignites (a diesel engine is a compression ignition engine).A spark ignition engine uses a lower compression ratio and requires the use of a spark to ignite the fuel (a petrol engine is a spark ignition engine).Because the oils used for a diesel have a higher calorific value, they have a better fuel economy, They also do not need extra energy usage to keep the engine running, unlike the energy that is lost to power the spark plugs from the generator/alternator which is taken from the useful energy produced by the engine.


Escort LX 1.6 1992 will not start with ignition key engine turns over but starts straight away with bump start or tow and runs okay?

needs either a new ignition switch or a new starter solenoid


Why is your 1989 caprice turning over but not starting?

Commonly a fuel pump issue. An easy test: Have someone bang on the fuel tank as you try crank the engine. The engine could be flooded with gas, or there could also be an ignition issue.


How do get Ignition Switch Diagram for 2005 Monte Carlo?

When changing anything on a car, a person needs a diagram. A person can get an ignition switch diagram for this car, by buying the cars maintenance manual.

What needs to be changed to go from points to an electronic ignition on a stihl 031AV chainsaw?

You can use the same flywheel but need to put in a complete solid state ignition set up. http://store.chainsawr.com/

Ignition will not turn over?

The engine needs fuel, compression and spark (ignition) to run, you are missing one of those.


Why does Engine shake when idling check engine light flashes?

The engine is not hitting on all cylinders or the distributor (electronic or manual) needs adjustment.


What does the EEC power relay do?

EEC is the electronic engine control, the EEC relay sends power to the electronic engine control. The EEC relay should have a total of 4 wires going to it. Of the two smaller wires only one will have power, and only when you turn the ignition ON. Then if the relay is working properly you will have a completed circuit, creating a magnetic field with in the relay. This magnetic field will make a connection between two more wires that will be larger. Only one of the two larger wires will have power, when the connection is made with the ignition turned on. This will make a connection sending power to the fourth wire and the fourth wire will send the power to the electronic engine control (EEC). Then the electronic engine control will send power to everything the engine needs to run. LLL


What causes the ignition not to turn off the engine in a 1972 Plymouth?

engine idle set too high or the timing is off and needs reset.


What causes a 99 Alero to stall on ignition when the engine is warm?

The crank sensor probably needs to be replaced.


What would cause the engine to shut off?

An internal combustion engine needs fuel, oxygen, and an ignition source. If any are missing, it would stop running.


Which item is not a component of the ignition system control module starter solenoid coil spark plug?

Control Module depending on type controls the engine functions, transmission, ignition, etc. (test does not specify "Ignition Control Module")Starter solenoid would be the most likely choice because on older vehicles with points ignition, the solenoid has a Resistor (Run) post for and an Ignition (Start) post, but now we don't need resistors, but it still has to do with ignition!Coil supplies voltage to the spark plugs = ignition again.Spark plug creates the gap for the spark that the fuel needs to ignite, ignite = ignition.


What do you do if a truck will not start because there is no spark but you changed the coil and cap and spark plugs?

The following is for older engines that use "points": One side of the coil should be "hot" when the key is on and the other side should be pulsing when the engine is turned over. When the points close, one side of the coil is "pulled to ground". First, check that you have voltage to the coil when the ignition is on and the engine is not running. Second, check that you have a good ground to the OTHER side of the coil when the points are closed. Today's solid state ignition systems are similar, but use transistors instead of a physical switch (points) that needs to be changed periodically. If it's computer controlled, check the diagnostic code.


What does an engine light and a malfunction in the electronic throttle control system indicate?

A issue which needs to be diagnosed properly and repaired accordingly.


What is a EGI fuse?

An EGI (Electronic Gas Ignition) fuse is a safety device used in electronic ignition systems, commonly found in gas appliances like furnaces and water heaters. It serves to protect the ignition circuit by interrupting the electrical flow in case of a fault or overload, preventing potential damage to the ignition system or other components. If the fuse blows, it typically indicates a malfunction that needs to be addressed before the system can operate safely again.
