I remember working at an auto parts store years ago and a kid there had an old Datsun truck that was running really bad. He took it to many shops and they came up with things like carb, burnt valve, head trouble, all kinds of things. I asked him if he had changed the condenser? He told me no, that wasn't the problem. I said but it only costs 2 bucks and we have them on the shelve. He told me I didn't know what I was talking about that all the mechanics were telling him it was something major. Finally after weeks I was in the lunch room and he came in and said that were going to put my theory to rest once and for all. So he went and changed it. When he came back he literally bowed to me and was in amazement that his problem was solved for 2 bucks. I was always told to change the condenser every time I changed points on my 66 Mustang. Well I was a kid and didn't always do it, well one day my car starting running bad, and I tried to tinker with the carb, change the fuel filter, new plugs and wires and points. Then I thought, you know maybe I should try the condenser and to my surprise it worked! Couldn't believe it! It's called experience.
