Two things: went back and checked the replaced cap. it was 1600 V. Can I assume this is overkill and I can use a 1000? There is an original 1000 v elsewhere on the circuit. Second: how do I determine positive and negative on the two electrolytics? They are both in a can, but I think they are single units. I was going to cut the wires and just put in two new ones, leaving the cans in place. I looked at the schematic, but it seems like a non-standard way of representing a capacitor. So is the center of the can positive or negative?
