Default Testing Echlin FA49 condenser with capacitor tester

I have a couple of questions I was hoping someone could help me out with concerning checking a FA49 condenser with a tester. The condenser will be used on a 6 volt '39 pickup with helmet distributor. The capacitor tester(Sencore) that I have access to is a very nice one that requires voltage, capacitor value, and type of capacitor to be entered. It will check for capacitor value, leakage, and absorption.

What voltage should I set the tester to?

What type of capacitor is this condenser? The options are: 1. aluminum lytics, 2. double layer lytics, 3. tantalum, 4. ceramic, 5. all other caps

Thanks
