Hey guys- Now that the 84 is up and running smooth, I am beginning on restoring a 90 which is in great condition. The question I have might be a rookie one but I didn't run into this yet. The metal containers which house multiple caps in a bakelite mold often contain several different ratings, but the schematic only identifies each as the same ID# without any way to identify which size cap goes to which connection. Am I missing some resource to help me identify these? Thanks forum!
