The ignition system of the outboard engine is responsible for generating the electric spark required to ignite the fuel air mixture inside the engine cylinder. The system typically includes components such as a battery, stator, regulator rectifier, ignition coil, CDI (capacitor discharge ignition) module, spark plug, and related circuits.
The stator generates electricity, which is regulated and converted by the regulator rectifier, stored and discharged by CDI to the ignition coil, and finally generates high-voltage sparks at the spark plug to ignite the engine. The correct timing and maintenance of this system are crucial for efficient engine operation.
