Cleaned the points on the 18 hp Onan last week while I was waiting for new points and condenser, no change,,,but as soon as the points and condenser showed up i put 'em in and she's purring again, just like new. Thanks guys!
 
I would not have change the condenser and I hope you kept the old one just in case the new one goes bad soon. As for cleaning the points one has to really work on them some times to get them good enough. I have had to use a Dermal type tool to clean points that where really bad. I cleaned up a set of points for an OMC engine not long ago and had to use that tool to get them working. Looked all over the place for new points and no one could find them for some odd reason
 
Glad you are back in operation.Save to old condenser you may need it. I agree with old on the points. They can be hard to clean at times.
