    Ignition coil...

    Thanks. Editing: Yes, at 60Hz. Will it jump 60Hz sparks a reasonable gap not being pulsed DC ? Would it be useable as to electrify a barbed wire fence - deterrent ?

    Television reception antennas farce...

    And what is f here ? : So changing a frequency does not change the impedance ? What do you mean by 'quite' ? ---> And why do antenna tuners exist for ?

    I would use a pencil eraser. But you do not know if the slot is the one with flaky contact instead of the card. Try it in other device to discern.

    PCB Component Removal

    The capacitor body is helpful for holding it in a rocking motion while applying a well tinned high-power soldering iron for removing one pin at a time. As extra resource, behead the bad capacitor with cutters and drill its pins out for mounting a new one.

    Axial C testing

    Do it another way. For over ~1uF, Apply to it the DC voltage labeled for ~5 seconds; measure its stored/held DC voltage that should diminish slowly to zero.

    Resistor

    As above; plus can be salvaged as found in junk electronics like switching pc supplies; and tailored by paralleling or serializing other values. Try 5.6K 1W 5% at ebay for small quantities and perhaps lower mailing fees than DigiKey. How do you know yours is bad ?
