I believe you'd be referring to your Wingate? It would depend whether it was the early or later chassis.
The melted capacitors certainly sounds like it.
I also checked the 2watt resistors nearby. The 22k (10%) measured 33k and the 82k (10%) measured 96k. They were right next to the resistor dissipating 8.5 watts. These are well out of tolerance and I am beginning to suspect a lot of the other resistors have drifted as well...
