    Hey, if you have spark, you have spark. Capacity is one test for a condenser. However, the kiss of death for most of them is the leakage test, preformed on a real magneto analyzer, like a Mercotronic or a Stevens. When I say that most original Phelon condensers fail a test, I am talking about leakage. Leakage is such a good test of a condenser that I never bother to test capacity. But again, if you have spark, you have spark.

    Long live American manufacturing!
