Reply To: low voltage at ignition switch, current limiter, or??

Another note on condensers, the fellow working on the car has a nice shop only working on early cars and is a Mopar guy, with cars from 1915 Dodge up in the Mopar category and others such as a 1909 Reo and a 1911 Hudson.

He used to run a NAPA store. He said you can buy the condensers new at NAPA, they still stock ones suitable for use on the older cars, but, he said, buy TWO, because brand new out of the box they can be bad.

Interesting, too, that condensers aren’t rated by voltage.
