P1319 Sparkplug voltage detection module bank 1

P1318 Sparkplug voltage detection module bank 2

P1316 Sparkplug voltage detection circuit  malfunction bank 2

P1317 Sparkplug voltage detection circuit malfunction bank 1

The sparkplug voltage detection module is known as electronic spark control module,not to be confused with the ignition control module, The hard start and fuel smell is due to this module not producing spark in the cylinder and allowing the fuel to go unused, A replacement of the spark control module is the solution

The sparkplug voltage detector is on the passenger firewall top section grey box ,It  is just one unit, that controls both bank, The purpose for the sparkplug voltage module is to improve sparkplug performance ,especially when you have the A/C on. This device improves idles ,and quicker idle response,
