I will just chime in and agree with those who replace all paper and electrolytic caps.
All it takes is toasting one expensive power transformer (raises his hand -- yes, I did that), or having to haul a "restored" set back onto the workbench a second time (raises hand again).
As Chuck said, once I am done working on a set, I don't want to see it again for a long time. Other parts can and do fail, but not half as often as cruddy old caps that you leave in place.
