capacitors were rated at 20 % tolerance. I have no way of verifying how accurate this 20% rating claim is. I went and checked the old " CDE' branded wax capacitors that were originally in my 1962 C3 but there was no tolerance rating written on them. I checked the red mylar caps and transformer coil filters tray ( originally from a 1970 T-300 ) that are now in my C3 and I checked the red mylar caps in my late 60's / early 70's L-143 and these do have a 10 % tolerance rating written on them. Earlier this year I measured the mfd values of the red mylar capacitors that are now in my C3 and all of these capacitors are well within 10 % of their 0.255 mfd and their 0.1 mfd ratings so therefore these red mylar caps would more or less still be properly matched to their transformer coil filters. All the best. Kon
