    Thanks for the feedback guys. I ordered new condensers, but naturally the actual replacement is listed as NLA. I’m order the recommended replacement, but waiting to test the new condensers before I remove the coils.

    In regards to testing the coils…. Since the laminates are riveted to the aluminum plate for the magneto; Am I correct in my understanding that to properly test the resistance of the coils I would have to remove them from the laminates? If they are still attached to the magneto plate the Ohms would be whatever the whole magneto reads as one unit, rather than individually correct?

    I’ll pull the points for a good cleaning and testing to make sure they are working correctly. Thanks again.

    Any insight yet as to how to load photos?
