To get at all of the caps, I had to remove 2 of the switch/coil sections. There is a capacitor buried between wafers and is easily accessible by taking things apart.
Capacitors stuffed with new and resistors checked. I should have taken a pic of the buried capacitors, but i didn't.
Sub-chassis reassembled. Most of the sub-chassis connection wires were brittle and so replaced. Only the antenna wires and connection wires on the chassis remain original. The antenna wires, for some reason, were quire flexible and obviously do not carry a high tension signal.
