Mystery Cap in an early (two 45s) Model 90
#7

I suppose I should clarify. There was no cap where it seems like it should be but there was extensive prior work with multiple non stock caps so it is a little hard to tell.  I restuffed the metal cap blocks and scavenged bakelite blocks from a parts set and reatuffed them too to try to get back to factory appearance. 

Sounds like it will not burn down the house to power up the set without the mystery cap. Thanks again to everyone for their help. I will post a pic of the chassis when I get a minute.

Thanks Morzh. So it appears I did wire it incorrectly and I have to switch the wires between pins 2 and 4.bobclausen — 09:24 AM
