Well, I completed the restore and it looks and sounds great. All of the coupling caps I replaced were really leaking and way out of spec, one was leaking 2amps at 400v and not going down, most increased current leakage during testing which should not be the case. A couple of the bypass caps would not even register as caps with my Sencore and my cheap tester. I also replaced a few resistors that were out of spec. I did use cans, sorry, I like to keep original as I can and they fit really nice and tested excellent. I mostly used orange drops for everything else. Yes, I even took out the time to unsolder pins to add the new components, I was going to do the old wrap around but I kinda knew I wouldn't before I started.
I am not changing the nonpolar plug and I am currently waiting on the safety caps. If the .1 line caps that are installed in there now are anything like the other caps I have replaced, then they are coming out either way.
