JOHN also mentioed there were tow more in the chassis (bumble bees) that needed replacing..does anyone know the ones mentioned?
And does anyone have a few of these to sell me??
Thanks!

The two you said that you need are the bumblebees.

www.justradios.com carries the caps you need. They're listed as 0.00047uF(470pF)/15kv.

I tried to find the old HV cap I replaced, but I guess I threw it away because it was leaking oil. I wanted to post a photo for you.

It looks just like any other bumblebee except that it's much larger.

I wonder how many sets used these in the HV section. I haven't worked on that many sets, but the other models I've seen used either doorknobs or plain paper for HV.
