The CJ 6V distributor by Ross Kowalski
The condenser went bad on the M1 the other day. I got arcing at the points so I immediatly suspected the condensor. I clipped on my test condesnor (a condenser with an allegator clip on the holding strap) and bingo, problem solved. I remounted the condenser directly to the coil as that would make it easier to fix if it goes again. While I had things open, I cleaned and photographed what's in there for reference if someone is going to open theirs up. This is not a set of instructions, just a tour.
