 |
|
In preparing for getting my engine running, I came across a few things that I was not familiar with. Car is a 66 1300 sp, and supposedly, still 6v.
This is attached to the intake manifold.
And there is this little guy connected to the coil.

I believe the second item is a noise suppressor.

| First is part of a aftermarket EGR smog devise. Second is a coil noise suppressor. |

As for the smog device, should I just leave it there? What impact will it have on how the motor runs?

It would be nice if that condenser reduced engine noise  . It's to supress radio static due to current discharge from the coil, generator etc.

Well, on that note, what might these have been used for...

Power for the radio normally comes off that fuse, the pair of condensers are for electrical noise suppression.

| I believe they have to be grounded . Also the fuse box & wire ends need work . |

The noise suppression usually came as a kit with multiple condensers. Typical locations for condensers would be coil, generator, radio. Grounding helps but is not a requirement, best if the condenser (resistor) isn't wiggling around loose. .
