Get someone who knows about hacking electrics to check it out. And
I mean "hacking" - not an electrical shop, but perhaps someone with
and interest in old cars or radios.

It is generally dead easy to replace a condenser with a functionally
equivalent one, and often possible to replace a coil. And 90% of
the time, it is the condenser, anyway.
