Mercedes-Benz 500SL Ignition and Tune-Up Products

Every single Delphi ignition coil is designed and endurance tested using high quality materials. This ensures fast starts, consistent engine performance and optimized fuel efficiency. We makes more than 10 million ignition coils for North America each year, and each one is engineered to OE design specifications for vehicles from Ford, Toyota, Nissan, Lexus, GM, Mazda, Chrysler, Subaru, Acura and more.

Product Features:

• Delphi coils provide OE performance, durability and electromagnetic capacity level requirements
• Delphi ignition coils are designed to operate as part of an integral engine management system to insert power into spark plugs and ensure fast starts; consistent engine performance and optimized fuel efficiency
• Delphi uses winding process techniques to control the length of wire between adjacent windings; that’s important since more length means greater voltage differences and can create more pressure that could break down the insulation and wire coating
• We back our ignition coil design with proven materials, such as high quality wires and wire coating that resists the cracks, pin holes and imperfections that most often lead to failure issues

Benefits of Bosch original equipment quality ignitions coils include the right ignition voltage, long lasting spark, better engine running conditions, lower fuel consumption, and reduced exhaust emissions.
