[Mgs] MGA sputtering engine and bad replacement parts

[Paul Hunt]

Correct.  One failure mode of these a while ago was the connection from the 
foil to the case and/or wire when it changed to crimped from ... whatever it 
was before.  I've never had a condenser fail in 40 years, and I've been 
carrying spares in both my MGBs since I had them.  I've only ever changed 
one once, which was when I was treating a distributor to new leads, cap and 
rotor as well as points for some silly reason, but I got away with it.
