Hello MrFixxr, 
I used to visit my public library to get a copy of the Howard Sams! 
Today, I replaced three more capacitors. One of them was a 0.068 μF, and used two 0.033 μF capacitors to get 0.066 μF.  .
Anyway, I have a question: C67 in the schematic below shows 0.039 uF, but I have some 0.033 uF capacitors. Since this is in the boost line, I’m wondering if a 630-volt capacitor would be good enough. Tomorrow, I’ll be putting the set back together so nothing gets lost or broken, as December will be the next time I can work on it.

Sincerely Richard
