Philco 610b repair
#1

Hello Everyone,
Well, I am currently working on my Philco 610b after about 20 years the original electrolytic capacitors that I installed sprague Atoms one went bad so I decided this time to use Film capacitors .

I replaced two of the 3 capacitors they were 8 ufd so I used two 3.9ufd at 630 volt.  
Well the question is The 3rd capacitor is a 16ufd electrolytic anyway I was planning on using 3 4.7ufd capacitors in parallel doing so it would add up to 14 ufd would you think I would have any issues with using that value .


Here is my neat little package that i made up to fit into the original 8ufd electrolytic cans .
