That second Condenser is most likely there to reduce RF interference from
the engine for your radio. If you remove it, it won't have any negative
effect on the engine's running. But if it is shorted, could be causing your
spark to be shorting to ground. Temporarily remove it and see what happens.
Couldn't hurt!
