HELLA Direct Ignition Coil for Honda and Acura

The HELLA Direct Ignition Coil, part number 358168191, is a standard replacement ignition coil built for electronic ignition systems with a 3-pin connector and bolted, flush-fitting pencil coil design. It delivers the ignition voltage and spark energy needed for smoother engine operation while helping reduce exhaust emissions.

Key Features

• Direct ignition coil for electronic ignition systems
• Flush-fitting pencil ignition coil design with bolted mounting
• 3-terminal, female connector with blade terminals
• 12V design with 14VDC specification
• High vibration resistance and corrosion protection
• Mechanical stability for long-term reliability
• Standard replacement for select Honda and Acura applications

Product Details

HELLA engineered this ignition coil to provide consistent spark output under demanding operating conditions. The coil is 175 mm long, black in color, and mounts at the engine head using a bolted installation style. It does not require an external resistor, and the oil-filled design is not used here, keeping the construction focused on direct ignition performance. Part number 358168191 is a practical OE-style replacement for drivers addressing ignition performance concerns on vehicles such as the Honda Civic, Honda CR-V, Honda Accord, Acura TLX, and Acura RDX.

This part cross-references Delphi GN10886 and Hitachi Automotive IGC0095 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Engine misfire caused by weak or inconsistent spark output
• Rough idle related to ignition coil wear
• Hard starting from reduced ignition voltage delivery
• Loss of throttle response tied to ignition breakdown
• Increased exhaust emissions from incomplete combustion

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the 3-pin connector, bolted mount, and flush-fitting pencil coil layout before installation. Confirm the engine head mounting position and match the coil length and terminal configuration to the original unit. Because this is an electronic ignition component, proper diagnosis of the ignition system should be completed before replacement.
