Steve, you pretty much have it right. The spark is generated when the points open and the magnetic field generated by the 12V flowing thru the coil primary winding collapses. This magnetic field collapse generates a high voltage spike out of the coil secondary winding which is connedted thru the rotor button and wire to the spark plug. The capacitor is there to prevent the feedback from this collapse from burning the points.
