Default Polycon from Fegusson failed

I put in a request for a replacement which was thankfully responded to by Bill (AC/HL).

I have now replaced the offending Polycon cap and have signs of life although a little way to go as there is the usual AF11*,s and to add insult to injury a bunch of Callins caps.

Going to be a day or two before I can get back to it.

I though I would share pictures of the failed capacitor.

Its been a while since I have had to replace a Polycon so I suspect failures of this type are not that common.

Cheers
