Repairman,

You can check the condensor with an Ohmmeter. One lead on the body of the condensor and one lead on the wire. You can hold one lead on the wire or one lead on the body; if you touch both leads, you will be reading your body. Watch the meter. As the condensor charges on the battery in the meter the resistance will increase to megaohms. Reverse the leads. You should have a minus sign in front of the numbers until the reading passes through zero on it's way to megaohms in the other direction.

A bad condensor either will not charge or will charge and discharge without moving the leads.

*LATE EDIT*

Repairman, You suspected a fuel problem early on, why haven't you tried different fuel?
