So yours is bad? It's of the same generation as the Blue EROs, which are the good kind.... that "-4d" is the key. Blue ones are also of the same generation of KP1831 caps:

What's wrong with another ERO? Saw them for years, no problems. The blue ERO/Roerderstein caps are constructed like the orange drops - they have a failsafe construction - opening up the B+ line to the collector of the HO Transistor. Do a google search by value - somebody probably has one stashed somewhere. I'll look at some of my GE stash - I know I have the two lead variety, but not sure of any 4-lead stuff.
