Diplomat V8-318 5.2L VIN K 2-bbl (1982)
Pick-Up Coil: Description and Operation
Six and eight cylinder engines use two pickup coils. The start pickup coil, located on the distributor, signals the computer to fire the spark plugs at
a fixed amount of advance during cranking only. The amount of advance is determined by the position of the start pickup coil. The run pickup coil
functions the same as for the four cylinder engines except that its signal is not recognized by the computer during engine cranking.
