I need help with condenser spec for 69 DT 250 was created by pmb
Hi everyone. I am trying to find the specs for the condenser on my 69 DT1B 250. I have looked through the manual and I can't find a value. The Yamaha part number is not available so I am trying to get an alternative. I am also wondering how generic the condenser is. Maybe someone can recommend a known successful generic alternative. Thanks

Tons of them on eBay.
I also have them if you can't find what you want.

My DT2 bible says resistance 3 M 'can't find next cymbal, upsidedown U.
Capacity 0.25 ?F U shape cymbal.. If in doubt just hang a second condenser from the wire into the plug coil & earth it. Honda run there's attached to the plug coil. ps, dt2 is as near as i can find to dt1 in my stuff.

0.22 microfarads +/- 10% from page 62 of the service manual at yamaha-enduros.com/index.php/service-man...ctory-service-manual
From my experience I agree with DEET in that it is better to buy a suitable genuine or aftermarket replacement than to find some random replacement. It also has to survive the temperature, vibration and voltage it is exposed to in the engine.
Good luck!

That is an insulation resistance value. The upside down U is really the Greek letter omega, and represents ohms. After discharging (shorting out) the disconnected condenser, using an ohm meter the resistance should be 3 megohms (3 million ohms) or more. It is a measure of how leaky electricity wise the condenser is.
