Abstract
A gasket of non-conductive material formed of layers of a ceramic between which is embedded a wire circuit for connecting spark electrodes, high voltage connectors and ground connectors of a spark ignition system. The wire circuit includes small diameter wires surrounding gasket openings for bounding and sealing the edges of combustion chambers defined by cylinders in an internal combustion engine. The small diameter wires are insulated by the high dielectric layers of the gasket as well as by high dielectric wrappings and a sheath of high dielectric material bonded to and within the layers forming to gasket.
