Wat r the symptoms of bad cap?
like do they go bad without being bad visibly


wat r symptoms of dirty or bad connection on the 10 pins?

 

Before cleaning it, check closely for any cracks in the plastic, chip off the crud on the terminals and make sure there is no grundge in the plug wire receptacles. I have not seen a huge amounts of bad caps, mostly I've seen bad coils and rotors.

 

Tune up if not recent, should be done anyway. This way, there is no qusetion. Usually one of the first things over looked.

 

it looks ok, worn but ok. and no cracks, i just didnt know if it could be messed up without it looking bad.

and it has a tune up for the most part except for the cap, its a year old and it just didnt look too bad

 

Usually, you'll see ark marks on the terminals and corosion will start to build up (inside). Take a piece of sand paper and shine them up a little

 

i did that when i did the tune about. ill check it out again

thanks
