Ok, so survey says "replace the capacitor". Looking through the archives on the capacitance of the capacitor, there seems to be some disagreement on what the capacitance is. I've seen posts saying 4 microFarads (uF), and some saying 10 uF.

Really. Please just buy one from Harold. It's not that expensive, and this is one of those things you want to do "right" to avoid problems down the road. The other is the relays.

This cap runs at *very* high voltages (600+) since it is on a small winding on the transformer. Accuracy is also important, as this stabilizes the transformer.
