    wmohat, you are thinking too much. If you are considering the OMC Universal Magneto coil, they use the 580321 condenser, 0.20 mfd. If some other mag coil, specify and one of us with a Merc-o-Tronic book can look it up for you.

    BTW, you would be amazed at the peak voltage.

    Actually, the points open at the time of voltage reversal as the magnets pass by the laminations. I’ve never seen it on a scope. Never got that concerned.
