Chevy CK Pickup Ignition Coils & Parts

Ignition coils are essential for your Chevy CK Pickup, because they generate high voltage to supply your truck’s cylinders with power. If they function properly, your truck delivers a smooth ride. However, over time they may fail like any other mechanical parts. If an ignition coil completely fails, your truck won’t start at all. There is a number of symptoms that will warn about possible failure. The most obvious symptom is starting difficulties – if it takes you a number of times to get the truck started, it is better to check your ignition coil.

Another obvious indicator is misfiring or backfiring. A defective ignition coil causes partial ignition of a spark plug, leaving too much fuel and air in the system. Misfiring is a similar symptom – if a spark plug doesn’t ignite properly, it may lead to sputtering, especially at high speeds. Among other symptoms are excessive engine noise, poor fuel economy, stalling, and drop in power. There is an easy way to test your ignition coil and figure out whether it requires replacement or not. Connect an ohmmeter to your coil using its positive and negative terminals. Primary resistance should fall between 0.4 and 2 ohms and secondary – from 6,000 and 8,000 ohms. In case you need replacement, right here you’ll find a variety of upscale Chevy CK Pickup ignition coils and components offered at economical prices.
