In a nut shell the Capacitive Discharge Ignition utilizes a capacitor to store the spark required for ignition. This concept is different from the old oil filled wire wound coil.

capacitor discharge ignition. Produces higher voltage than the old oil filled coils. A shock from this can be fatal. It makes for a stronger spark that can jump a bigger gap and gives more efficient burning of the mixture
