    the excellent article by W.Mohat on cap sizing pretty much concluded that anything around .22uf will work and a bit bigger up to .47uf is ok if enough spark is generated to run the engine

    my understanding is that bigger caps will increase the points protection while…. lowering the spark voltage.

    smaller caps will increase spark voltage at the expenses of points damage

    so .22uf is probably a fine mid-point
