Abstract: The efficiency of the ignition system in a spark ignition engine is very important to improve engine performance. This study aims to analyze the use of flash cable on the primary coil voltage in a spark ignition engine applied to an injection motorcycle. There are three types of flash cables (11, 16, and 21 coils) that are made and tested to see the increase in voltage produced. The experimental method is used with a measuring tool in the form of a peak voltage adapter connected to a digital multimeter. The results of the study showed that variations in the length of the flash cable coil significantly affected the primary coil voltage. Flash cable with 21 coils provided the highest voltage increase of 262 V, compared to without using a flash cable which only reached 219 V. The use of flash cable can improve ignition efficiency and spark ignition engine performance.
