I'm trying to fix an old Williams Jungle Lord Pinball machine and the logic power supply faulters when the solenoids engage. I've tracked it down to a pair of electrolytic capacitors that have seen better days. If anyone has any caps lying around that they would like to liquidate, let me know. The values that I need are: 30,000 uF @ 25VDC (about the size of a coke can) 18,000 uF @ 20VDC (2 film cases together) Thanks, Brian

Surely you can find something cheap at a surplus outlet that would be big enough to run this. --------- lrk@k5qwb.UUCP lrk%k5qwb@kf5iw.UUCP 73, utacfd.utarl.edu!letni!rwsys!kf5iw!k5qwb!lrk Lyn Kennedy K5QWB @ N5LDD.#NTX.TX.US P.O.

Get yourself some junked computer power supplies. (Go to a place that repairs IBM PCs and the like.) Test the capacitors; most will be good. -- --------------------------------------------------------- Michael A.
