Condensor is new, but of course that doesn't mean it cannot be bad. What I don't get is why spark found a new path to ground across the rotor plastic. Electricity seeks the path of least resistance, so I don't see how a bad capacitor could cause that tracking unless it's making spark at the wrong time. And . . . I could be wrong.
In regard to the 1010 diesels - I don't agree and there has never been any central Deere authority to say they were bad. I was a Deere dealer mechanic for years - and yeah, we complained about the 1010s and 2010s. So did some official Deere tech-people. But, they were not all that bad and the diesels lasted a long time when taken care of properly - and started properly in cold weather.
I worked on many, and most of the problems with 1010 diesels were due to a lack of understanding -by operators, owners, and mechanics. Add Deere to that list since many Deere tech-trouble shooters were clueless. Keep in mind that the 1010 was the first Deere to use a rotary injection pump from Stanadyne, so there was a learning curve involved. Also, many early diesel parts got discontinued fast and were near impossible to get when some 1010s were only 10 years old.
I still wish my 1010 was a diesel. Besides being better on fuel, it's a much bigger engine with more torque if set up right. The 1010 gas is only the size of a 420 two-cylinder engine. Just has four little pistons instead of two big ones.
