Description
Overview:
The Condenser Cp 4m13996 - Robin Part - RB220 70210 18 is an ignition condenser for small petrol engines used in construction and garden machinery. It is a compact electrical capacitor built from durable metal and dielectric components to handle heat, vibration, and frequent use. Fitted within the magneto or breaker-points assembly, it helps prevent arcing across the contact points and stabilises voltage to the ignition coil, supporting a strong, reliable spark. This replacement part suits many small engines commonly found on generators, compactors, pumps, mixers, mowers, and similar tools. Often referenced as 4M13996 or RB220-70210-18, it is a practical service item to restore smooth starting and consistent running when an engine shows weak spark, misfires, or intermittent ignition issues.
Key Features:
- Supports reliable ignition by reducing arcing at contact breaker points
- Helps maintain a strong, consistent spark under varying load and temperature
- Durable construction for long service life in dusty, high-vibration environments
- Compact form to fit neatly inside typical flywheel/magneto housings
- Straightforward to install with basic hand tools; common single fixing and lead connection
- Stable performance aids easier cold starts and smoother idling
- Suitable as a routine service replacement to address weak or erratic spark
- Compatible with many small petrol engines used across construction and garden equipment
Typical Applications:
Commonly used during engine tune-ups or repairs on compactors, generators, water pumps, cement mixers, lawnmowers, tillers, brush cutters, and similar machinery. It is fitted where the ignition uses breaker points or a magneto, helping restore dependable starting, reduce misfires at low and high revs, and improve overall running quality during daily site work, grounds maintenance, and general DIY tasks.
Also known as:
Ignition condenser, engine condenser, magneto capacitor, contact breaker capacitor, points condenser, ignition suppressor capacitor. These terms are used for the same service part that partners with breaker points in traditional small-engine ignition systems to control arcing and deliver a cleaner, more consistent spark.
