What is up with C21 on the Philco 36-350?  It has a knot of wire around it.  The note says to duplicate it if you replace the capacitor.  The problem is that I will be using a different physical sized part.  I am tempted to either just slide it loosely around the new part or maybe just not replace that capacitor altogether.  It is a 0.1 uF paper cap.  A yellow Mylar will be a smaller diameter.

Thanks,

You could always cut the leads off the original and leave the "knot of wire" in place then solder the new cap at the contact points. You will be leaving the wire as is and have a new cap too.
