I agree. In 32 years the only Bosch capacitor I've ever had give me trouble was one that got pinched under the generator at the dealer. Once I got it free from there, I continued to use it for years and later sold it on the car. The engine compartment heat let the smashed insulation return to its original shape and eventually you could barely see that it had been abused. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
