A bad condenser will cause the ignition points to spark more heavily, and burn out sooner. Also misfiring, bucking, and even stalling can occur as the spark may not be sufficient at the plug. The condenser helps reduce sparking at the contact points, and it also stores and provides extra energy for the next spark event, so a bad condener will reduce the strength of your overall ignition spark.
No, it will not run.
No electrial spark or fire at the plugs.
The 327 cubic inch Chevrolet's distributor had points and condenser and not an ignition module. If you have an ignition module then you have a HEI distributor that was changed out.
The ignition tumblers are part of the cylinder , they are internal and are what differentiate the key cuts. They do occasionally stick and bind the ignition cylinder
A bad ignition switch can shut down a vehicle's electrical system. Ignition switches have been the cause of a major recall by General Motors.
Yes, a bad ignition condenser will keep a motorcycle from firing. A bad ignition condenser might also have caused the points to stick together and burn up.
If you have a bad condenser your car won't run. Always carry a spare set of points and condenser (you change them together) in the glovebox.
No, it will not run.
What are the symptoms of an cooled Condenser when the air leaving the condenser is hitting a barrier and recirculating?
inside the distributor
using a dvom put your leads on the condenser on the 200 ohm scale and watch if the number rises. once you reach overload, switch the meter leads and it should climb back down. If this does not occur, you have a bad condenser.
A bad ignition coil will cause your engine not to have any spark. Without any spark the engine cannot start or run.
If it repeatedly fails you have excessive heat, wrong spec condenser, its getting wet, the voltage is incorrect off the ignition (or magneto if you have one that primitive) or you may have a bad plug wire or coil causing the spark to "back up" into the condenser. ( How it was described to me in the 1960s ) It could also just be wired on the wrong side of the coil or points. Good Luck
The ignition condenser is located inside the distributor. In order to repair the issue, the distributor will need removed and replaced.
Ignition condensers went out with the ignition points in the early 1970's.
No electrial spark or fire at the plugs.
No it does not have points or condenser.
