Probably not. But it could be caused by a "pickup coil", rotor, distributor cap, loose connection... lots of other possibilities. I don't see how. Backfiring is usually caused by improper timing. When a coil goes bad it usually just quits.
Either the coil is bad or the ignition control module is bad.I would think the coil is faulty.
A malfunctioning coil pack can cause your 2001 Pontiac Grand Am to backfire. The more likely cause is a faulty fuel injector.
...could be allot of reasons why you may not be getting spark, here are some: # no power to ignition coil. faulty ignition. # faulty distributer cap, rotor. # faulty ignition module. # check for start signal from ecm. ...and there is a few more.
There are 5 symptoms of ignition coil failure. They are: backfiring, starting problems, fuel economy is off (less millage per mile), engine misfiring, and vehicle stalling.
More likely a charging fault. Check stator, rectifier and regulator. A faulty ignition coil would cause misfire, scant acceleration and lumpy idle.
yes
Only if a faulty coil is causing a misfire. A faulty coil can be diagnosed easily by connecting an oscilloscope and looking at the waveforms.
To troubleshoot a faulty lawn mower ignition coil, first check for loose or damaged connections. Next, test the coil with a multimeter to see if it is producing the correct amount of electrical resistance. If the coil is not functioning properly, it may need to be replaced.
On a high energy ignition, possible problems include: Faulty keyswitch, faulty wiring or connectors, faulty pickup inside the distributor, faulty electrical condenser, if it has points (depends on the type of HEI) the points could be bad, faulty coil or faulty HEI control module. You will need to identify which component has failed.
You didn't mention whether you've changed the coil wire itself. If it's faulty, you'll get no spark anywhere. Also, the power supply to the coil or module could be at fault.
Check power to ignition switch with ignition turned on check the on position at back of barrel for power for starters, EA falcons have a thick film module which i think is located in the dizzy, which if faulty could burn a coil out.. good luck
Ignition coil could be damaged,a break in its power wire most likely the green w a black stripe,faulty computer,faulty distributer cap or rotor
