Out of tolerance resistors
#13

I always change resistors that have drifted more than 20 to 25% with new 2W carbon film resistors. I use 2W only because they look more authentic. My logic is, if we don't change then now, they will probably continue to drift and resistors with leads might be really hard to find in 20 to 30 years.
