    What’s funny is the ELTO magneto above passed the Mercotronic ignition test. The coils and condensers were new and each component passed the tests both individually and as an entire magneto. This was one case where the only diagnostic tool that showed a problem was the inline spark tester. The problem turned out to be a faulty condenser. Even though it was new and passed the condenser tests on several pieces of equipment it would fail after a few seconds of running. It was a real head scratcher!
