Thanks Sir Chook,
Hope you had a Merry Christmas.
I had doubts about the condenser and checked it again when I removed it completely. I could not get the same results as before or for that matter any encouraging readings this time so I took it to an auto electrician who said it is stuffed.
It does not have any information on it other then Villiers in large print.
I think it would be easy to retrofit a standard capacitor if I knew how many farads (or how they measure these things) I need. There is a crowd over here with a whole warehouse full of Bosch ignition pieces, they turned it over about 200 times and said without more information they could not help me.


Thanks again,




If I can get a large enough hammer it will run for awhile just trying to get away from me
