This will prevent damage to the parts if there is a short circuit in the set. With one you should get some sort of an idea what is happening. If the light stays bright then there may be a short.
When using a variac, get one with an ammeter on it. As you bring up the voltage, if the meter shows rapid increase of current, there is a short or leaky electrolytic (always a concern as they can make a good mess).
Like I said, any questions, always ask!

The other nice thing about justradios is that you tell them the make and model and they'll put the capacitor kit together for you.
