Is that ceramic across the line? If so, you should replace that with an "X" type capacitor.

But I remember back in the 60s when RCA had a recall because they had brown plastic caps right across the AC line that would fail and spew carbon and metal bits like a blowtorch. The cap RCA supplied looked like that ceramic, and I never saw one fail, but X and Y caps are now used for this purpose.
