***  Modern elecrolytics have more C per unit volume than the
electrolytics of yesteryear.  Finding an exact mechanical replacement
with the same electrical ratings is not likely.   However - more C is OK
as long as the glitch resistor can stand the extra joules/watt-seconds.
--  Digikey and Mouser have a pretty good selection.   105ºC-rated
electrolytics have the longest life..

cheerz,  John
