A simple way of checking the condition of the condenser is to remove the distributor cap, body, and rotor. Make sure the points are closed. Turn the ignition on and place the high tension lead (from the coil)about 1/2 inch from any convenitent ground on the engine. Push points open with a screwdriver then close them. The resulting spark should jump the gap with a sharp snap and a straight line and have a blue tinge. If the condenser is weak the spark will still jump the gap, but will be stringy and white in color. If so replace with one that passes the first test. Ralph Workman
