640B e-cap rebuild
#1

Hi guys -

Working on a recently acquired 640B.  Instead of installing e-caps under the chassis, I'd like to re-build the originals since they're still present.  They're the type with the cardboard sleeves under the mounting rings.  I've seen some articles in the library for various techniques but seem to recall older articles that I cannot locate.  Perhaps they were removed when the site was updated a few years ago.  Looking for the best method.  Recommendations?

Thanks all,
Paul

Look at my post #10, I have just finished this thread.

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.
