Genuine Bosch Ignition Condenser | VW Type 1 & Type 2 (1974–1979) | Square-Hole Distributor (98-9948-B)

Genuine Bosch Ignition Condenser — VW Type 1 & Type 2, 1974–1979 (98-9948-B)

Keep your late-model air-cooled VW's ignition stable with this Genuine Bosch Condenser, engineered for 1974–1979 Beetles and Buses. The condenser acts as a vital electrical buffer, preventing premature arcing across your contact points and ensuring a clean, powerful collapse of the coil's magnetic field for a stronger spark.

This unit is designed for original Bosch distributors featuring the square grommet hole. Replacing the condenser during every major tune-up protects your new points from pitting and heat damage while maintaining optimal dwell and timing.
