Quoting Removed, click Modern View to seeJim, I have read enough of your postings over the years to know that you know that in order for a capacitor to charge or discharge, that current must flow in one lead and out the other. Take your dozen caps charged to 500 volts & then shorted for example...where do you suppose the current flow was that created the arc/plasma that hurt your ears? Going beyond that, in the run caps on an electric motor...why are they physically so big, compared to filter caps of same MMF & voltage rating? Because they are passing current all the time the motor is running. That is the same reason run caps are larger than the starting caps on such motors..........current carrying capacity. Further, back to the ignition, because I expect the "DC VS AC argument next, look at these ignition scope pictures.........
.....surely, (and that's not Shirley) with all the hundreds of volts of oscillations/ringing going on it both the primary and secondary, you can't possibly deny that there is current passing through that condenser?
