Ok guys, I think I will have to spent some more time reading up on this stuff. I agree that a full schematics would have been really helpful, and I will do my best to try lay out the whole circuit but as of now I don't have the skills to do so. I mean, I can barely read schematics as it is. This is a steep learing curve indeed, but in the long run I'm probably better off knowing not only how to but why I do whatever mods necessary to get this unit up and running again. I will also try to re-stuff the capacitor as it will definately look better. I even think I'll change the electroltic I put in with an axial and put it inside the shell of the old brown, just for the looks.
