This is not really a good recommendation. It s better to check the circuits and to find the failure. So you have the opportunity to learn something.
If the capacitors made of wax and paper, there is no need to replace them. You can take them out of the chassis and "cook" them in 110°-degrees-Celsius hot wax. The water will boil and evaporate. After that the old capacitors are like a new one. Perhaps they have lost 5% - 10% of capacity, but this is within tolerance.
