Standard Motor Products, Inc. - Condenser Ign (FD-75T)

I bought a new condenser from a John Deere dealer to replace a very old one, along with new points, rotor, cap, wires, plugs, & distributor shaft bushing. My tractor ran poorly and misfired constantly after replacing everything. Hours of troubleshooting revealed no certain fault. I ordered a Standard FD75T condenser even though my made in china Deere brand condenser tested fine at .27 microfarads. The Standard condenser I received is made in Mexico despite the listing saying made in china. It tested at .21 microfarads. I did not have much hope of improvement since everything in the ignition system was already replaced. Incredibly the engine fired right up and ran like a top after installing this condenser! I suspect the dielectric material was breaking down in the chinese condenser causing an intermittent misfire. This insulation breakdown would not show up on a capacitance test. Good luck with your ignition problem.

Awesome.

Worked for my Bosch 019 distributor. Liked the fact that the mounting clamp is not secured to the condenser so you can adjust it as needed.

Everything was perfect fast delivery and worked great
