Here goes my $0.02 on condensers. If you look at the listings of recommended condensers for outboards (and small motors) you will see that with few exceptions call for .19 – to .22 microfarads. Since the very best quality foil capacitors available these days have a rated value plus / minus 5 % , I think that the old paper /wax caps of days gone by are lucky to be +- 20%, if that. Based on this I have found that a high quality foil cap of 0.22 mf will work just fine I everything that I have tried em’ on.
