I understand how it could make the car inoperable. I don’t see an

How do bad condensers cause rough running? All they do
is prevent the points from burning. Oh, you are saying
the points are burnt.

Could coincidental, not causational. How old
is the condenser? Even if newish, there are
lots of crappy new Lucas parts out there. I
