I've used them both for the main filter caps and smaller valued electrolytics. For example the 18 chassis has a 3 section electrolytic with values of only 1, 1 and 2 uF. I think this is a good place to consider using film caps.

I also like using these polypropylene AC motor run caps when the original cans are missing becuase they fit very nicely in the original mounts Icon_smile
