Coil packs

Asked by Terry Dec 26, 2018 at 03:11 PM about the 2000 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT Extended Cab RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Will it damage your engine if you run direct
12volts to each coil pack bypassing the
EMC?

2 Answers

This won't do anything at all. Unless you have carefully timed pulses going to the coils then engine will not run.

Could you be more specific? I had to run a 12 volts wire to each coil on 1,3,5,7 now the truck seems to be running fine. My question is will there be long term damage?
