I would check C310 first (in the schematic Bob linked above). This is a special 3-legged capacitor which, if not replaced properly, will kill your FM reception.

It may be replaced with a conventional .01 uF capacitor, but you have to be careful that you connect it properly. You may have to connect a jumper wire to take care of the now-missing third leg, as discussed in the following link:

Hopefully this will be helpful.
