Hello:

I am restoring a Philco 620, last night I removed part 66, a 6287 DU Bakelite block so as to rebuild it. I don't have a lot of experience repairing radios but though that rebuilding the block would be easy. Whale this looks like a bit more than I bargained for so my questions is, how do I rebuild this thing. As part of a cap kit I have for the radio there are two orange square caps .015k which apparently are to replace the two caps in the block.

While digging the tar out of the block I inadvertently riped the existing caps out of it. While examining the inside of the block I noted that there are three wires inside the block, apparently they are soldered to the center lugs of the block. How do I wire my two .015 caps in to the block.
Please you help on rebuilding the block is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
