Default Re: Question about a "Helmet" distributor

There certainly are condensers out there that work .... But.... When Tubman comes out with his 32-36 Ford condensers you can sure bet I'll buy a few.
I build early distributors literally daily and test condensers daily. As GM said you have t treat them like they are on the car with heat to test them properly. Simply measuring the capacitance is not enough. The leak down rate is important as well.
