I took a photo because I can't really describe where or what it is. Any help would be great. I keep seeing a spark arcing when I rev the engine, coming from this part.

I took three photos from different viewpoints. The last photo shows zoom in of part. The first photo was only for a reference of the general area. I think it may be the coil. But which coil? Ignition coil. I know nothing. please help.

I changed the spark plugs and cables this month. So they should be good, came with the extra cable. It's the white plastic clip thats arcing, right from the electrical cable.

If you already replaced the plug wires as you said you need to replace that coil as it must have a split in it.

Hard to tell from the first 2 pictures. With the cable coming out of it on the third, it looks like your ignition coil. The cable is probably bad and is arcing. Buy a set of sparkplug cables and this coil cable will come with them. Make sure you replace them one at a time so you don't get them mixed up. You can get them at any parts store.

Your 3rd picture appears to be that of your ignition coil. You really don't want sparking there -- won't do anything good for either your performance or mileage -- likely coming from the coil wire. If I'm seeing your pic correctly, that might indicate you're due for some new plug wires, including the one between the coil and the distributor -- appears to be right near your 3rd arrow.

it is an ignition coil the tower that u put the new wire on is most likely cracked the voltage from the tower is jumping to the easiest path to ground look for a crack on the tower

that is your ignition coil.its what takes the 12vdc power in your engine bay,and jumps it up to around 10k volts. if this is bad youll get no spark to your plugs,and with out that the engine just wont run

On an automated transmission it truly is termed the kit selector. On a stick or instruction manual transmission it truly is termed the gearshift. And the section on the very end which you carry onto is termed the knob.

That is the fuel injector air cap.... it just cover the top of the injector and the air flows through it.
