Detailed Product Description

The Prenco ignition coil part number 36-1143 is engineered to meet the ignition requirements of Acura TL vehicles.

This ignition coil is compatible with Acura TL models requiring a 12V ignition coil with blade terminals and no external resistor. It is commonly used to address the following issues:

  • Engine misfires or rough idling due to weak ignition spark
  • Difficulty starting the engine or intermittent ignition failure
  • Reduced fuel efficiency caused by incomplete combustion
  • Check engine light triggered by ignition coil faults
  • Loss of power or hesitation during acceleration

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Prenco ignition coil 36-1143 on an Acura TL, ensure the vehicle’s ignition system is compatible with a coil that does not require an external resistor. Verify the blade terminal connections match the wiring harness and that the female connector fits securely. Since the mounting bracket is not included, use the existing bracket or mounting hardware from the original coil. Always disconnect the battery before installation to prevent electrical shorts or shocks.
