You say they never go bad , does this include one I used than it sat in a bag since 97? Also it seems the Bosch voltage regulator is a bit different from the one I got in 97 as it does not have the little Bosch emblem stamped on the tops of the 3 diodes even though it does have all the Bosch numbers on the side and a Bosch box. </p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>William</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Sent from <a href="https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986">Mail</a> for Windows 10</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div style='mso-element:para-border-div;border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='border:none;padding:0in'><b>From: </b><a href="mailto:jadney@vwtype3.org">Jim Adney</a><br><b>Sent: </b>Tuesday, March 12, 2019 10:04 PM<br><b>To: </b><a href="mailto:type3@vwtype3.org">type3@vwtype3.org</a><br><b>Subject: </b>Re: [T3] 73 type 3 FI ignition condenser ?</p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>On 12 Mar 2019 at 20:06, William Jahn wrote:</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>> I wanted to try going back to points.
