A simple condensor check is to leave everyting in the distributor as per normal, and simply connect another condensor (vitually any type, say a Lucas type 1950s to 1980s) direct to the coil. The condensor can be earthed between the coil and its strap.
If this fixes the problem, then either the original condensor is a dud, or it has an earthing problem.
Leaving the original condensor in circuit doesn't seem to matter.
Make sure that the moving plate in the distributor is properly earthed.
