Model 86 Help
#2

I did an 87 awhile back. It's kinda messy and smelly. Mark all of your wires so you'll know where the reconnect them after you've replaced the caps. Remove the can from the chassis. Heat it in the oven at 175 or so to loosen the tar. Then you can use a cork screw or a large eye bolt to screw into the caps and pull them out. Clean the can out. Solder new Mylars where the old ones were. Install onto chassis and wire it back up. Then you are in business! Voltage wise your looking for 630v jobs.
Wouldn't try to do any repair work on the set till after this is completed. Without the proper filtering and bypassing you'll be chasing your tail trying to fix it.
