#18 IF transformer #2 on the schematic shows 18C Cap, 18D resistor and 18E a cap. These look like they are in the IF can, the schematic does not show the values, should I be concerned about these.

Thanks

Replaced the electrolytic and paper caps and most of the resistors, it is now in working condition. As for the #18 2nd IF did not touch it. Now to work on the cabinet, new cloth and a finish coat.
Need to repair the loop antenna frame which is wood.
