RE: Visual check with MP3 suppression caps.

Yes, I apologize any confusion I might have caused in this regard. I do not have any of the MP3's on hand and so assumed they "looked" like other Wima capacitors, having a vertical black line imprinted on the right hand side of the cap. I've always assumed this line indicated the outer foil. So...I don't know what to conclude regarding the correct orientation when using Wima caps.

FIW...Jonathan Carr's method is a relatively easy and consistent way to identify the outer foil and seems to work well on all other caps I've tried.
