Cap value?
#1

Kinda stumped on the value. 90000mmfd? 94mmfd? Neither are anywhere close to the given value in the schematic which is 700mmfd. Looks original to the chassis.

figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Did you try to just measure it with the meter?
If it's mica, it might be good and stable.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

Don't have one one those new fangled thingamajigs, You know I live in 1967.
I replaced it w/a 700mmfd cap didn't fix the issue darn it. I had started to convince myself that the white was purple and it was 70mmfd a mistake at the factory.
