About the NGK COP (Waste Spark) Ignition Coil Line
The NGK COP (Waste Spark) Ignition Coil product line is specifically designed for distributorless ignition systems that use a paired cylinder firing method. This coil type supports waste spark ignition, where one coil fires two spark plugs simultaneously, improving ignition efficiency and simplifying the ignition system. The NGK COP ignition coils are engineered to meet OEM specifications for voltage and terminal configuration, ensuring compatibility and reliable performance in applicable Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram vehicles.
Product Details and Specifications
This ignition coil operates at 12 volts and is designed for distributorless ignition systems, which eliminates the need for a traditional distributor. The coil type is COP (waste spark), meaning it fires two spark plugs at once, one on the compression stroke and one on the exhaust stroke, which is common in many modern engines. It features a blade terminal type with two terminals, a female connector, and male terminal gender to ensure proper electrical connections. The coil is not oil filled, reducing maintenance concerns and potential leaks. This part is identified by part number U4042 and stock number 48937.
Common Applications and Issues Addressed
- Replacement for faulty or worn ignition coils in compatible Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram models
- Resolves engine misfires caused by weak or inconsistent spark delivery
- Improves engine starting reliability and smooth idling
- Addresses rough engine performance related to ignition coil failure
- Prevents potential damage to ignition system components due to coil malfunction
Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the NGK COP (Waste Spark) Ignition Coil 48937, ensure the vehicle ignition is off and the battery is disconnected to prevent electrical shock.
