    Atc 110 condensor question

    Hi, I'm changing the condensor on my atc 110. I'm from Ireland and the only 1 I can get has 2 wires instead of 1. There is a blue wire and a green wire, can I just cut the old condensor off and join one wire onto the wire I just cut then screw the other wire onto the frame as a ground? Anyone else had any experience with these?
    Thanks Sam

    Hi and welcome.
    I'm sure someone has done it before.
    Maybe try the search key?
    If you can't, I can try for you too.

    Shop manuals are free in the world class help section too with wire diagrams.

    A condenser is like a battery.
    Most have one wire and the case is grounded.
    It sucks up a charge and is triggered to release the charge as a 'spark' or spike charge.
    usually by the points or cdi, depending on what your 110 is.

    Most manuals have a section on how to test them by charging them first and then
    grounding them to see if they throw 'spark'.

    I just changed a 90 coil that was buried up inside the frame but that condenser has more than one wire.
    I didn't have to figure it out since it was a one piece coil condenser unit type thing.
