    If you decide to replace your mag plate, the same 72-790 plate was used on several different models.

    With a little bit of determination, you should be able to get that mag looking and sparking like new again. The original capacitor (condenser) for these mags was rated at .27 – .33 microfarads but in the photo I’ve used two axial caps rated at .15 mfd hooked up in parallel to get the same .30 rating.
