Do you have an example of that setup? --- End quote --- A standard coil on plug is this type, 12V is applied all the time, there is a separate trigger pin. Search coil on plug and you'll see these types. |

| SteveyG:
General definition would be the "standard ignition coil" as the large cylinder type which would feed the distributor, not a COP type. Looks like there are various COP configurations though. I think only the 3 pin coils are the type with just a transistor inside. |
