Abstract

The invention contemplates a capacitor-discharge ignition system which includes a particular low-resistance, low-inductance, wire-wound circuit element at the spark plug which is operative with the spark plug and with the rest of the ignition system to materially suppress RFI generated at the spark gap. In application to high-speed, high-power two-cycle engines, use of the invention does not adversely affect engine performance.
