Should anyone have a mbd like this and wants to fix it, I have some,
maybe all, of the caps that are recommended as replacement units. I
fixed one of my own mbd's and ran it another few years with the new
caps, ran just fine. I don't have the time to do any mbd's now but I'd
give away some caps to anyone who wanted to fix the unit themselves.
