All the stuff is there, the 'grease' I use since 1993 its a non hardening silicone, again there if customers want to use it.

Coil Boot Style
Chibi, YES you are correct.
We use my CO-2 pressure chamber to "fire" a Spark Plug as it would be under the "pressure" of a running engine. WHAT I HAVE FOUND is that the Spark Energy will LEAK out at that area causing miss-fire. Lance |

Lance, if the boot is not able to reach down to the metal of the plug, what is the best way of trying to contain the energy?
Slightly excessive amount of die electric grease, what let irons are there... J.

Spark Plug Boot Design
FIRST, my data is MOST OFTEN observed, tested, retested, by the use of my CO-2 Spark Plug pressure chamber firing bench.
This allows for ACTUAL running engine test conditions without damage to the engine. I have NEVER tested a "dual" boot design. (two boots connected at a parting line) MY reason is the development of the FireCore 50/250 8.5mm spark plug wire showed HV leaks with others 10mm wire. What was found: When the insulator diameter was increased from 8mm-10mm, a greater chance of a "pin-hole" size hole was present. ALL who produce the silicon jacket over the wire conductor have the same problem, its just that the 10mm size allows for the pin hole to be more common. This "pin-hole" allows the HV to leak out into the air with lower energy passed to the end of the wire. The WITNESSED observation is seen as a Corona on the outside of the wire. I should add that my tests where with the use of the IGN-1A coil@400psi. of CO-2. Reason would state ANY tear, pinhole, cut, "dual-boot" design would cause a HV leak. Lance |

Unless you use a simple amount you would always use of Dielectric or Moly compound. Like you would on any ignition system. Especially I High Performance Ignition..
Use common SNES and you will have no problems. You forced conditions with an airgap if the airgap is sealed it will not happen correct?

Pressure Test of Plug Boot
Correct ? : UNKNOWN
One method, my method, would be to do the test using my CO-2 Chamber. Would you be able to set the parameters for YOUR test ? Lance |

ok I have all parts finished, will take some pics later on today my time, busy with seals that have to be sent to customers so this will have to come second.
*they look great* and work nice ![]() later today/early tomorrow will get in touch with customers who have emailed me about various systems and parts to organize their items, thanks. Peter
