Anyone have a source for the radio noise suppressor?

Mines about to break off...

I got one thru NPD in their Mustang catalog, but other venders should have them too. How about a local auto part store?

Thank You!

I was searching for capacitor!

 

[ransil]

search for condenser too

 

[clintonvillian]

Is it even necessary?

That looks fine to me. If you listen to radio, yeah you need it.

Even on a modern radio?

It literally has a few crispy strands of wire left, if I move it, it is done...

Give it a try without it, you aren't going to hurt anything.

They are capacitors, so you weren't wrong to look for them that way. And some books even refer to them as "radio noise suppression capacitors" but because more and more automotive people over the years just identified them with "condensers" inside a distributor, where the electronic folks usually used the capacitor name, it pays to look for both in case the person loading the computer was an auto type, or an electric type.

I believe the original word was in fact condenser, or condensator (like the original word for aluminum was "alumium"), but with the demise of distributors many years ago now, I think capacitor is likely to take over and leave condensers to the air-conditioning folks.

Definitely wouldn't have thought to look for capacitor
