Default capicator

Where can I find the radio capicator for a 69 that mounts at the base of the coil that is suppose to cut down on radio interference. Thanks Terry

Are you concerned with correct restoration ?
If not - you can pick up a large valued cap at Radio Shack - or other electronics outlet. Just be sure the voltage rating is over 20v, and get
the largest value they have that is reasonably sized. The + side to the positive side of the coil - and the - side to ground.

Are you sure it's this - and not EMI from the spark plug wires ?

Mine has the original ... would you like a picture? You could match it up at an electronics store.

Mine has the original also, I think. It's missing the black wire. Tried to solder one on but didn't have any luck. It has these numbers on the back
