did the Mershon caps have a high failure rate? I have been looking at pictures of the 71 from sources around the internet and I have seen quite a few with the sprague caps in them. Since mine is missing one I'm trying to find a replacement to fill the void. If I can confirm that the Mershon caps were originally used ill keep an eye out for some of those but they go for big money sometimes.

Or maybe just go with something that looks similar.
