Hi Bill, Did you try retuning the coil after you replaced the caps?  If you 
did, maybe the coil material cracked?  At any rate, I would try adjusting the 
coil for least SWR and if that does not work you can purchase a coil from me, I 
have them.  It is pretty difficult to adjust a coil while the amp is on, some 
fancy ingenuity is in order, but it should be adjusted.  Contact me if you 
decide you want a coil.  73 Louie W1QJ
