Looks to ME...like a capacitor that used to be in cars with the standard--non-eelctronic ignition system...they usually called them a "condenser". I believe it's purpose was to do 2 things" reduce sparking of the contact points and ALSO...somehow provide a path for the HV to collapse through or such. I have been told..they will NOT produce spark--without one in place...
