    I remember my uncle showing me how to test condensers buy charging them off a running lawnmower
    spark plug. He’d then wait twenty seconds or so, and see if they held a charge
    by placing the condenser lead close to it’s case. If it held charge, you’d see
    a nice spark! …… not sure how useful that test was, and I haven’t tried it
    in thirty years!
