Good point rg. I suppose one could epoxy the coils. I wonder if coating would make them overheat?
For everyone. The epoxy coated coils on the CDI stator are much thinner wire. The voltage is not regulated and is very high. These coils charge the capacitor in the ignition not the ignition coil. The high voltage in the cap is then blasted through the coil (capacitor discharge). This gives a sharp high voltage spark and a fast rise time to make a spark with even a fouled plug. Used allot on two-strokes.
