the two spark plugs in the circuit, what do they do?? for teh circuit

[vrand]

My engine is in open state for replacement of oil seals and piston rings, trials on engine are not taken yet.
It is much better than diodes, on table setup it gives much much better result than diode.

Sorry to hear that your engine is in need of repair. I hope you have it up and running soon.

What size and type/mfg engine are you using? 

Why the need for the 600W lamp in the circuit before the bridge diode?  That lamp load looks like a large user of energy? 600W X 4 cylinder engine= 2400W?

@capacitor70,what size is your ferrite core?I assume it doesnt really matter?...thanks

The 600W light is just a high wattage resistor you can get for cheap.
It's just limiting the current going into the capacitor so you don't trip the circuit breaker charging it.
A 600W limiting resistor means you can never draw more then 600 watts from the source.
Also acts as an indicator; if you have a short it will light up brightly, a resistor would just get hot. 
Just buy a couple of halogen bulb tubes. they sell 500 watt tubes at Canadian Tire.

In my opinion, the 600W lamp will waste the energy by producing waste heat...... 

Why not try to replace the lamp by using a ac capacitor.......  35uF 300V Capacitor

I think this will make the circuit more efficient....
