Today I tackled the removal of the RF deck to replace three paper capacitors. I had previously replaced the 16mfd electrolytic mounted on the RF deck by adding a terminal strip under the chassis. Since I had the deck removed I decided to stuff the old electrolytic can with the new capacitor. To my suprise the old capacitor was filled with liquid. The part number is 30-2118S. I have stuffed many old cans but this was the first I have encountered filled with liquid. Can anyone enlighten me about this capacitor? I would also rather take a beating than have to remove that deck again.
