Probably best to use a cheaper paste as you might need much more than one tube.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.To be honest, thermal paste is mostly used for controlling the conduction of heat that is radiated through an effective heat sink. Where this paste is absolutely top notch for controlling the heat that is generated by a powerful graphics card in a computer, your ignition module may require something of a different grade, if there is no heat sink present. I would say it might work for a while until proper repairs can be made. It is very viscous and is hard to get out of clothing. I would compare the heat resistance of this paste to the threshold of heat that is generated by your ignition module, just to be safe. One more thing to consider - Those who apply this paste to a computer processor head are advised to never let the paste run over onto other electrical components, as it may lead to damage over time. Most thermal pastes consist of a solution that includes diamond powder for heat resistance, but it is unsure if the other elements in the paste are resistant to electrical currents. Without thermal paste, my processor can reach temperatures of 280 to 300 degrees F. So far, I can tell this paste can handle this kind of stress, continuously for at least 5 years worth of hard work before it needs replacing, but that is also taking the heat sink into consideration, with a built-in cooling fan. I wish I could provide you with more concrete answers. I just want to help you with a few things to consider or research before taking any risks. I wish you an awesome day, and to take good care.
