Both the coil and condenser can make a week spark when
starting. The amp load of the starter pulls the voltage to the
coil way down. Some times it will start when the engine is still
turning just as the start button is released. ALL old Ford coils
are bad when the get hot. Condensers can also act bad when
hot. The sure way to solve the problem is to send your coil to
to Skip in Florida to have it rebuilt with modern high temp
materials. Also send a few condensers so Skip can heat them
up to make sure they work hot. Contact [email protected]
for info. G.M.
