>I am guessing the .5uf is a 0.47uf? And the 0.25uf should I use the 0.27uf? or 0.22uf? Thanks 
You guess correctly. Original tolerance was +/- 20%. Values are not particularly critical w/these caps.

Got ur generator apart, don't think it's ever been cracked open. Has a nice musty aroma about it. On
to the caps.
Don't it you are finicky abt appearance if so the cabinet has some surface rust but a little bit of black
wrinkle spray paint wouldn't hurt. Front panel is good as it's aluminum.
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
