<div>Is there a simple way to test a distributor condenser out
of the car? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>After many years of easy driving, my Healey suddenly quit
on me, without warning. Fortunately, it was in front of my
home after coming back from the local drive.</div>
<div>I found a sticking float valve on the front carb.
Cleaned that out and tried to restart without success. Next
I looked into the distributor, and after cleaning the points
and cap it still would not start. I decided to change out
the condenser which I know from past experience can go bad.
That seemed to make the difference. But, I have several new
and a few used condensers in my inventory. I would like to
try to test them to keep the good ones and reduce my clutter
of unusable parts.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Any suggestions other than installing it in a car to see
if it works?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
