[FOR SALE] Lot of vintage condensers

[4spdragtop]

Dad acquired these from somewhere lol. Some must be vintage with the logos stamped on them. Ford, Fomoco, Delco Remy. Another few with unknown pieces in PONT-1 paper bag?
Clearing out the shrapnel, trades?

Hi Steve, do you see any that could be radio noise suppressors? Radio Coil resistor 2197674

The bag with PONT & the 7 digit number is probably for a Pontiac.

I will chk for those #'s stamped on them.

Thanks, any idea what them brass round pieces are for Bill?

No clue on those, above my pay grade. LMAO

Mine too lol.

I've no idea if these are for radio or coil. None with those #'s on them Artie

You put them in the front bearing caps and the buttons ride in the machining center on the spindles. They were supposed to suppress radio static caused by the tires building up static

Any cap that you can figure out how to bolt onto the coil mount and connect the wire would work for a radio cap. However, they really should be tested. First they may be low on capacitance, which reduces their effectiveness. Second they may be "leaky" which means they draw current, and may short. Last caps that old can be prone to shorting, at any rate.

You need someone to test them. You need a high voltage leakage tester to do them right. Steve I would offer to test them (I have a couple of old heathkit cap bridges) but I'm not sure they are worth the cost of shipping to do all that

Notice the control at top right, "leakage test" and the voltage switch positions. This allows you to test higher voltage rated caps at close to their working voltage

Are you shitting me?

Can you out them to use Del? I have no need and you could put them to use?

Hi there. I would love to have the condenser tester.

Good old USA stuff ! Whats price on condensers ?
I have 2 items that still run such thanks Chris

 

[4spdragtop]

Got a couple stickers? And cost of shipping, probably $10-15.

Thanks Steve I really do not need them
