~25 years ago I went thru the entire stock at Foreign Car Specialists, testing 
every Bosch condensor they carried. Regardless of make, model, year, etc, they 
ALL had the same capacitance. I'm afraid I'd have to measure one again to find 
out what that value is, but they REALLY were all the same.

OTOH, they certainly DID vary in their lead lengths and connections.

Yes, I was surprised, too.
