I wouldn't use an electrolytic.  At the best the ones I've seen have a 
tolerance of
+80/-20% and they leak.  It would be like putting a resistor across the AGC!
I did find a suitable substitute - I think its either 1 or 2 
polycarbonate caps which
give a replacement smaller than the metal box in there now.  I put them 
in a box
of stuff waiting to be installed when I pull the set out of the rack.  I 
have a few
things to do but currently, if it ain't broke, I ain't fixing it.

Cheers es 73 de Gord, VE3EOS
