Ah, Condensers....

Ya can get some funny effects from them...

My POS Honda Accord used to eat condensers like popcorn...

Condensor failure symptoms.... Drive down road, car begins to stumble and run rough, all the sudden there is this backfire down the exhaust... wham, it hits the first bend, wham, it hits the second bend, BOOOM... it blows the back off the muffler...... took out 2 mufflers that way....

Or, engine just stops dead and won't restart. Usually happens on a moutain road with extra steep grade, a rock wall on one side, and a 1000 foot dropoff on the other side and in a corner.... Don't ask how I know...

Those are the two types of failures I have seen.
