Condenser Bosch for 1970-1973 Air Cooled VW 009 Centrifugal Advance Distributor

We have the Volkswagen ignition repair components that you have been looking for. The condenser suppresses the sparking that occurs as your ignition contact points open and close. This limits erosion of the contact points and prolongs their service life. Always replace your condenser to ensure the performance and long service life of you points.

Bosch #02054 Condenser fits "009" centrifugal distributor upgrades, a common replacement in many VW air cooled engines. In addition applications ran from 1970-1973 in the OE Distributor #'s listed below. 

Tech Note: Due to the interchangeability of Air Cooled VW Distributors throughout the entire 37 year VW range, for ordering purposes we must rely on the distributor number and not the year of the car. Years are listed as a reference point only. The ten digit number is often on the back of the distributor and can only be read by removing the distributor from the engine. 

Fits original applications: 1970-1973 Type 1, 1971 Type 2 w/o rev limit rotor, 1972-1973 Type 3, 1971-1973 Type 4
