Hello All
My BLIC magneto cap is absorbing moisture and making it very hard to start. Resistance as low as 20 Meg, leaking the HT spark.
Baking in the oven restores the performance. Is there a way of waterproofing the bakelite or using EHT spray etc to prevent absorption. New caps do not appear to be available.
Many thanks.
Adrian.
