Sustained-arc ignition system

Abstract

Process results in long-duration sparks which allow leaner, cleaner combustion. Procedure is not limited by available energy-storage devices and can produce continuous spark of as long duration as desired for optimum engine operation and pollution reduction. System can be modified to operate on engines not using distributor points and can be used with conventional Kettering ignitions.
