We only use brand new electrolytics in repairs...this assures the longest trouble-free performance of the repaired device. Also I like to check the date code on caps before buying...found some 1984 electrolytics at a parts distributor still on the shelf for sale...wouldn't use them as they already have more than 20 years of age on them.
Would not recommend using anything but brand new caps.
