Philco 39-7 resto
#1

Greetings!

I am starting my first restoration project with a philco 39-7. I am going to replace the electrolytic capacitors, the paper/wax capacitors, and the power cord (It's toast). I will also be checking/replacing the resistors, and any wiring that looks bad.

My first question is how to replace the electrolytic capacitors. I would like to remove the can, but was unable to do so. Plan B is to replace the cap, but put the cap under chassis. The electrolytic has one terminal that extends under the chassis. How do I replace that with one that has the two leads? Icon_confused

Thanks in advance for your replies! Icon_smile
