Those .001 wax ceramic ELMENCO caps I have heard are usually either bad or going to go bad soon..

The elmenco caps .001 and up are just wax caps in disguise.

I had never seen caps like them before i saw them in this set, kinda took them for resistors, till they were pointed out as CAPs in the SAMs, guess i should have replaced them, as they are clearly a source of trouble now
