No spark.

[Ray White]

I have just had to replace the condenser which failed immediately following several months of inactivity. But the symptoms were not complete failure - the engine would start and run when cold, but would not respond under load.

Hello Mike.  Yes, that is what I thought.  In my experience a faulty condenser usually causes problems with running rather than prevent starting.  Likewise, a coil may play up when it gets hot.  I might have to remove the distributor and go through it on the bench.  

Your advise would be welcome.

Thanks,
Ray.
