oldrx Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Team, anyone know if bosch BIM024 ignitors are compatible with FC Rx7 trailing coils? I have a pair of FC trailing coils would be nice to use one rather than buy a new coil for my trailing spark (dead MSD Blaster currently) Haltech describe the FC coil as "Waste spark ignition with Toggle-style Trail igniter. This ignition runs the same as a Distributor but has a signal from the ECU to tell the igniter to alternate the output between two coils."

kpr Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 trailing coils are just a basic single coil as far is i know. so long as igniter can supply enough current, should be able to use them in what every configuration you like. fc/fd leading coil is a wasted spark. the trailing coils are direct fire.

oldrx Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 Yeah they are singles so all good there, some interneters say you need a specific trigger (wave form?) to trigger them that needs to come from an ecu, I dunno but this sounds bogus to me, dont think a coil is that complicated and a basic BIM will run it ok... thats my gut feel anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
