Signs of Condenser Failure: A failing condenser may cause static on the car radio when the engine is running, difficulty starting due to damaged contact points from excessive sparking, or engine backfiring and misfiring. Regular inspection and replacement of the condenser ensures reliable ignition system performance and protects expensive distributor components.

This condenser is commonly used in classic VW Beetle, Bus, Transporter, Vanagon, Thing, Karmann Ghia, and Porsche 912/914 models equipped with standard or Bosch 009 mechanical distributors. Verify your distributor housing has a square cutout before ordering.
