For those following along here's the 44 schematic link: http://www.nostalgiaair.org/pagesbymodel...013581.pdf
Capacitance measurements on those old paper caps may look OK but unless you test them at higher voltages the leakage current may be unacceptable. Folks generally just change all of them out rather than wait for them to fail. Restuffing those black bakelite block capacitors is not really that difficult. Most of the resistors are probably 1/2 watt although some can be larger wattage.
Here's a link to a pdf for the 44 Instructions (thanks to Jeremy Schotter): https://www.dropbox.com/s/qlhk6u12ap0kcv...s.PDF?dl=0
