    Binge watching you videos to get inspiration for my NC build, installing a 5Race roll and door bar system on mine in the coming weeks

    Personally, I think high performance coils are a waste of money on a stock engine. If they were worth it, Mazda would have put them on the car when it was manufactured. Looking forward to your seat swap video.

      Thank you for watching. Just have some final editing to do on the seat video. Will be up within a week.

    I would think you need better plug wires to go with the higher spark voltage. You want the spark go to ground in the plug not broken wire insulation to ground. Once wire insulation broken down (due to high voltage, high temperature, old age crack insulation) it won't self heal and thus cylinder misfires.

    • @TachOnRed

      The ignition coils on the NC attach directly to the spark plugs. It's the same with most other modern EFI cars.
      As the input voltage to the ignition coils is the same 12V, there's no need for thicker gauge wires.
      Only difference is in the output voltage from the ignition coils and this is transferred directly to the spark plugs with no wires involved. 😊

      Same thing still talking about coil secondary. Boot material breakdown insulation is around 50kV. At some point, age, heat, contamination will compromise the boot resulting in misfires. Same goes with the plug porcelain which even has a lower breakdown. Thicker the boot material the better not wire size (about 40 mA draw). I would think the higher the motor rpm the higher the secondary voltage due to faster transient switching putting more stress on the insulation. Thus at some point manufacture suggest to change ignition components, say around 100K miles or sooner if driven the car harder.

    • @TachOnRed

      Oh I see what you mean.
      But since the boot material is part of the ignition coils, I'd assume the ignition coil manufacturer is responsible for selecting and using the appropriate boot material and thickness for the specified service life. 🤔

    Thanks, learned something about coils. Now is that engine cover really needed? I've always like the NA and NB engine look even though they are not as good as the NC.

      Thank you for watching! 😊
      As for the cover, depends what you mean by “needed”.
      Removing it won’t destroy your car. Plenty of owners who drive their cars without it.
      I’d rather have it there for the marginal level of dust and dirt protection it provides. But if it was held on with bolts, I’d have binned it a long time ago. 😆😆

    Never remove or replace spark plugs without a U/J on your extention bar,or buy a spurk plug socket with one fitted to do the job without breaking your plugs

    Good timing again! My wife's barbie car has 50k miles and I was just talking about sticking a set of plugs in it. I was curious what plugs I should buy it as I don't really buy into the hype of "performance" anything when it comes to that little pussy ford engine. You gotta lower the gain on the music man, it's not adding anything to you video but making it hard to hear you. ;-)

    • @TachOnRed
      @TachOnRed  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you for noting that on the music. It doesn't sound so intrusive when I'm editing and listening through my headphones. But I'll be sure to turn it down more in future videos. 😊 👍

    I like your videos but I really wish you'd drop that background "music", it's quite annoying in its repetitiveness, even more so when the voice volume is so low. Sorry!

    • @TachOnRed
      @TachOnRed  Рік тому

      Appreciate that! You're not the first person who's said that either.
      You'll notice that in my more recent videos, I don't use background music. And I won't be in any future videos either. :)
