Have rebuilt the can.
The can had 4 caps in it, 2x16uF, 10uF and 8uF.
I used a 15uF as the first cap, 22uF and 10uF as the two secondary after chokes, and another 10uF as the cathode feedback for the output tube.
The can is this
Took two heatgun to loosen the contents.
This is it rebuilt.
I installed it back, need to slder the rest of the wires, but it will have to wait as I need to clean that mess in there before I put everything back.
I also installed the choke. It is half-size of the original. I ordered 700 Ohm resistor to add up to bring it to 2200 ohm.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
