Philco 40-140 Field Coil Replacement
#50

As I said, the transformer should not run hotter with the larger cap. If it does, then something is either drawing more current than it should, or else the transformer was already marginal (that is, possibly damaged) from old, partially shorted electrolytics and continued operation in that condition.
