[QUOTE="HotRodZilla, post: 1132247, member: 13519"] A coil over system means that each spark plug, no matter what type, has its own coil. Many cars have done that for years. There are standard plugs beneath them, but it changes the configuration up top. Instead of having a single coil that runs all the plugs in order, like a high tech distributor cap, each plug has its own independent coil. It makes for better firing and better fuel use. It also means if a coil goes out, only that one plug will stop working. It also helps eliminate electrical "noise" brought on by bad plug wires. All the wires, we can see, do is tell the coil to fire. This new system is why the GenIII FJRs don't have the wasted spark the GenI and GenIIs have. Aw Hell, meant to link this: [URL="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_coil#Modern_ignition_systems"]https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_coil#Modern_ignition_systems[/URL] [/QUOTE]
