I'm not trying to be "smart" here, but from my experience, just about any engine will run just fine with a large range of capacitance values. The variable must be point life. How does the reading on a scope give us an indication of how the material transference will occur and to what extent?
You two gentlemen are among those whose knowledge and opinions I most respect on this board, so please take this for what it is; a sincere quest for relevant information that I can use in further product development.
"Murre" - Simply put, could you put a helmet distributor with a rebuilt "Skip" coil and one of my .22 micro-farad condensers on that very impressive array of equipment you show and be able to tell me that it is X nano-farads short or long? Or just that the pattern "looks good" or doesn't?
