Let's hope it's not an old Lucas 2MC. 
I last fitted one of those to a '57 T100 Triumph with Lucas alternator and K2F magneto. OK it wasn't in 57. It was fitted in '70 or thereabouts.
That said, I have no idea who actually manufactured those old Lucas capacitors. Who knows. Maybe the same people that are still making them.

Sparx makes modern 2MC caps, they work great.
I still have at least half a dozen ORIGINALS that still spark just fine.
The "problem" is usually dirty/loose/broken connections, or overcharging due to failed/improperly mounted zener diodes. (In other words, capacitors don't typically "fail" on their own)

The first of four CB650 engines. Somehow, I became a collector of these.

I really need to move. I just put two bikes in my tiny back yard so I could squeeze the wife's Fiat into the 1 car garage. Life in Toronto on a 17 x 120 foot lot.

Wait....WHAT???? 17' wide lot? I'd love to see a photo of THAT house! Even a 12' wide mobile home would only have a 5' side yard...

My house in Philadelphia was 1645 sq ft and on a 15' x 90' lot. That's called living in a city. LOLgrandpaul said:
Oh, I had 15' x 25' front yard on that lot. LOL. And a garage. HAHAtrek97 said:
