What sensor is this on back of 2004 VVT head?

Sensor above coolant sensor?

It's not a sensor, it's a condenser, aka a big capacitor.

Never seen that or that bracket before.

Thanks Reverant, I saw mention of it as a condenser in another thread, however it looked as if it was located in a slightly different spot. My guess is that with using my COPS, I can delete that.

is it for the ignition system?
To the best of my knowledge, all Miatas have one. On the 1.6 cars, it's tucked up under the fender lip near the igniter module. Not sure where it is on the '94-'00 engines.

Its certainly not in the coil harness for the 94 coils. And I'm not using it for the 01+ coils on my car now. I wonder if the lack of this capacitor could be causing some of my crank trigger noise.

Leafy, on my COP conversion, I put 4 of these (Nippon Chemi-Con 10000uf 25v 105C Axial Capacitor) between the + and - going to the COPs. Probably overkill, but did help with some lost sync 39's I was seeing on the MS3.
The other picture that I saw of this looked like it was mounted on top of the valve cover toward the right rear. |
Curious if anyone uses these in their VVT NA swaps. I appear to have left mine out & wonder if it should be put back in..
