OK, in my once a year post about my cranky Altec 436C compressors, I have a new question. I re-capped C2, 3, 5 and 6 without issue. I used some Mojotone vitamin T's in those spots and everything seemed fine. When I replaced C4 (1mfd, 200v) with a Solen cap with the exact same specs I get a weird popping oscillation type thing going on that I can control the speed of with release adjustments. Put the old Sprague cap back in and all is fine. Anyone got anything on that? It did this with both units, no matter of orientation of the cap... Maybe the Solen caps just suck? Does not seem very likely to me but Iam the village idiot with this stuff. The reason I am going for the recap is that the unit can get sort of farty sounding, especially on the leading edge of a signal and I have heard a re-cap is a good place to start. C4 seems to be "the" cap to get done and of course, that is the one giving me fits.
