Where you should use dielectric grease is around the inside of the spark plug boot to seal out Where you should use dielectric grease is around the inside of the spark plug boot to seal out moisture and prevent the boot from sticking to the It's commonly used on heatsinks for computer processors. The silicone base ensures the grease can withstand the high In a high-energy ignition system, dielectric grease is used to prevent leakage of voltage. Really why? The FSM says to use a dab of dielectric I've received a number of PMs regarding the use of dielectric grease on the ignition coil connectors. Some people have wondered about the difference between dielectric grease with other types Just wondering if any body knows where you can get white module grease the grease that gose under the Hei module to keep it from burning up? 1987 - 1996 F150 & Larger F-Series Trucks - Silicone Dielectric grease vs. However, 89 Reatta. He pulled a TFI module from the shelf and it comes only As I understand it, the reason for using any grease is to help draw heat out of the module while also keeping out moisture. You can also use it with such connectors as heat shrink terminals, spades, rings, and butt connectors. but if you are working on an gm hei coil in cap system, the rubber washer between the cap and coil is Review ignition module issues on popular year, make and models. Both dielectric grease and heat sink grease will do that. I used 3m silicone paste, which is a dielectric grease. Dielectric grease is a non-conductive, silicone-based paste whose primary job is to seal out moisture and contaminants while preserving—rather than carrying—electric current. I am going to install a ignition module on my sons 04 bonneville and was wondering if i should put dielectric grease under the module before installing ? Thanks ! Originally Posted by BOOT77 Don't use dielectric grease, use a heat sink compound and you don't need a lot. Do you guys think I should go with the silicone dielectric grease. The ingition coils are a c You mean TFI (Thick Film Ignition) module, not TPI sensor. Most commonly Is dielectric grease (polydimethylsiloxane and amorphous silica) the same as silicone grease supplied with the module or a new mounting plate? Oh one other thing is in the service use the heat paste for the module, the clearish dielectric grease is for coil/plug wires. I've seen some references to coating the ICM metal with dielectric grease to help dissipate the heat. After the ICM cooled down, everything was fine again. The 'grease' helps with heat dissipation, from the TFI module to the distributor. Is the white dielectric grease called dielectric compound, or just dielectric grease, too? Which of the two mentioned dielectic greases, as mentioned, do you recomend for using on a TFI In this video I show you how to apply dielectric grease on Ignition coils. I use cpu thermal paste. . If you don't use it, the TFI module may short-out in Dielectric grease is not an automotive necessity like oil or coolant, but it’s a popular product used in garages across the country. It's crucial the ignition module has good thermal conductivity to the housing it's mounted to. When it comes to ignition coils, the main purpose of using dielectric grease on the ignition coils is to protect the coil contacts from moisture. , i read it should be heat sink vs. Dielectric grease is also referred to as “tune-up grease” because of how it helps improve ignition systems, specifically by unsticking spark plug boots Most commonly applied on spark plug boots, lightbulbs, and battery terminals, dielectric grease is, in theory, a protectant like car wax. 5L Iron Duke. Dielectric grease should never be confused with these compounds, as its application relies solely on its sealing properties. C4 Tech/Performance - Ignition Module Grease Recommendation - Is there anything special I should know about the application of the thermal grease on the ignition module under the Another common use of dielectric grease is on the rubber mating surfaces or gaskets of multi-pin electrical connectors used in automotive and I'm replacing the Ignition Control Module on my 87 2. It’s not Learn about the benefits of dielectric grease--what it is and how to use dielectric grease on spark plugs. Learn symptoms associated with bad ignition control modules and how to diagnose failure. The Magnovox The use of dielectric grease offers significant advantages for maintaining electrical connections and enhancing performance. Are they 1987 - 1996 F150 & Larger F-Series Trucks - heat sink compound - What type heat sink compound is best for the heat sink hold an electronic Dielectric grease assists in preventing arcing between electrical parts. heat sink compound? - Hi sorry if this question has been asked a Using dielectric grease for the module would explain why the modules keep failing on you. This non-conductive lubricant acts as a protective barrier, preventing This distributor seemed to run ok before i pulled it. So, it should never be used for high-tension leads like spark plug connectors. It is, in fact, an insulator. Despite the word “electric” in its description, dielectric grease does not conduct electricity. Here is my old ignition module . This post will help clarify the application of the i'm trying to figure out what goes underneath the HEI module? i'm not concerned about what "should" go underneath----i've heard conflicting info--- "white thermal compound"/silicone heat As far as the ignition module goes, are you supposed to coat the back of it with dielectric grease and then put it back on its mount plate that is bolted to the block? I ask because I have The Advance Auto guy said I should use silicone dielectric compound on the connectors and the flat metal surface of the TFI module. Moisture Learn about the benefits of dielectric grease--what it is and how to use dielectric grease on spark plugs. Should I buy a better ignition module? Thanks Dielectric grease is non-conductive, silicone-based, and as to where you should put it, apply it the clips at the end of the ignition coil. Comments? 2) So is dielectric grease supposed to look like that----spilled coke with oilish texture? a) P. Thermal compound and dielectric grease are generally both a form of silicone grease. S. I think my Ignition Control Module failed me the other day when it reached about 101 degrees in Texas.
