C116 was replaced with a 40/40/40/40uf 350V Mallory by the recent tech last month. It says it should be 50/50/50/50 200V. Is this wrong what he did?NO,as long as you go higher in voltage,you are fine..He should have stated with the quad 50uf capacitance value tho.You say that cap was replaced last month but they haven't made Mallory twist-loc caps in years.That would to be a new old stock cap,or a used cap..Either way,it's questionable.
The diodes you want to use are the 4 amp 600v schotkys and they go in place of the diodes that come off the high voltage secondary. I sent you an email.
