Chaps



After having some issues with my CJ boost/ignition coil (shower of sparks) or whatever you'd like to call it I spent some time searching on this forum and in the parts manuals (Thanks Doug). 

There's a test/set-up procedure for it in the maintenance manual which I've reproduced here....

Interesting!  Great info Harv.  



FYI, to M-14 engine guys... the vibrator spark coil on the CJ is identical to the YAK's.  This procedure thus is applicable.  



A tester would need to build the test jig with the precision spark gap, but that is no big deal really.  You could make it out of something that has a point at the end, good screws for instance... and then just have two of them opposing each other with the precision gap.  Adjust as necessary as they wear.  



Advice from the peanut gallery:  Be extremely careful "sanding down" the points.  There is actually a special file specifically made for relay point polishing, and it is quite smooth, not rough at all.  I'd stay away from a file and just go with the "000" emery if you really feel it necessary.  Just sayin....   A bad mistake messing with the points would ruin the device.

We make a solid state replacement as well.

Probably a smart purchase.
