The old E.C. are not in the radio any longer. The new 8uf cap is the one that is blowing.
I see the plate voltage of the rectifier tube should be 340v, so will measure that. That is what should be flowing thru the 8uf cap...the one blowing is rated at 450v so I don't see why it would pop it... yet...
