Trouble is the N family with the front mount distributor uses a special coil that only fits it. Ford never made a 12 volt coil. That limits the selection. If there is a "12 volt" coil its either the stock 6 volt coil with a resistor added internally or required externally or something invented and created just to fit the modified N tractor. The last year of 8Ns used a standard coil, but all before that used a special. And I question that $20 NAPA N coil? seems too cheap compared to the original that still should have wider application.
I had an 8N and after I put new brushes and bushings in the starter and made sure of good battery cables and connections it started fine in any Iowa weather. I did have to replace all the wiring and that made the generator work too.
Condensers can be heat sensitive, but in my experience, they don't tend to recover when cooled, but some report they do.
