In Reply to: Bad condenser posted by MarkB_MI on October 21, 2017 at 12:11:42:
I keep all my known to be good condensers and I covered that explanation in an earlier post: Most I inherited from my dad when he died as he always saved his old known to be good ones and it is a practice I have continued. I have a gallon bucket full of them. Bad ones get the wire cut from them and tossed so no chance they will ever get re-circulated again by me.
In my dad's era it was common to tune up vehicles with otherwise relatively good points and condensers as preventative maintenance. If the vehicle was running very well when it was tuned up then those were all assumed to be good parts to be saved. Same for tractors.
Additionally I have brand new parts that dad well never got around to getting installed before he died. These are brand new parts but made in the 1970's and not in the land of almost right so having a failure right out of the box is nearly unheard of like the poor quality ones you buy today.
In your case, when the tractor would not run right or at all with all the new parts, then I would have left all the new parts installed and simply put the old condenser back in there (assuming tractor ran great before). If it ran good again well I would know my new condenser was bad.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
