Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ignitor for an internal combustion engine facilitating its mounting in an engine. SOLUTION: This ignitor for the engine comprises coil bodies 10, wiring boxes 20, connecting boxes 25, and a connector part 30. The overlap length between the wiring box 20 and the connecting box 25 can be made to differ mutually, and the wiring box 20 as well as the coil body 10 can longitudinally expand/contract by moving in an arrow X direction with its electrical connection with the connection box 25 secured.

This constitution can dispense with newly designing an ignitor for each engine having different intervals so as to reduce the types of the ignitors.  This constitution can thus expand the freedom degree of the device design.
