The justradios site has a capacitor shopping cart. Just click it and it will take you to all their capacitors. The original ones were wax, then oil from what I have seen. The ones from just radios are small tubulars. I have used them in all of my Motorola sets and in the high voltage of my Silvertone with total success. Without changing these the sets can act up in so many ways it'll drive you crazy. Also, the 12SN7 tubes can be somewhat critical in vertical and horizontal. Try several if stability or size issues crop up. Also, ohm out the horizontal centering pot. I had one that was 1/2 value and prevented the horizontal centering from working. I had to add resistors on both sides to bring the value to the one listed in the schematic. After that it worked fine.
