Stuff like this is what led to the "Alternative Condenser Project." You can see that as a sticky note at the top of the electric bay section. The condensers you get today are all made in China...unless you rely on a BSA for transportation. Those are made in India. From what I've seen, none of them are worth having. I understand the economy of things, and I understand back in the 40s through 70s they were cheap and meant to be changed with each points change. They were never meant to last long, but they were at least accurate when you got them. Not any more. Condensers are used less and less every year, but it doesn't mean they have to be junk produced rapidly with no apparent quality control. The "Alternative Condenser" has been designed to last for around 300,000 operating hours and made with one of the highest quality capacitors you can buy today. I'll be only a memory by then, but your condenser doesn't need to be.
