[Jukebox-list] AMI Power Supply Capacitor

I am rebuilding an AMI model I power supply and am replacing the 1000uF 50v capacitor. It has been suggested by Jay to increase this value to 2400uF. I have a new but older stock can capacitor that is 1500uF 50v on hand that will fit perfectly into the existing clamp but it measures 2800uF with my meter and esr leakage is almost zero. Why is the value almost twice what it should be and should I use it? It would save me a trip or ordering one. I’m more curious than anything else of why the value is so much higher. Thanks, Mauro
