The lead lengths off the sockets, combined with idle current of the tubes, the plate voltages, the grounding scheme, layout of components, phase of the moon, color of your sox, etc has made it that a 100 mfd cap cancels out that motorboating oscillations---prolly via a time-constant resonanace frequency thing.If you are happy with the 100 mfd solution, let sleeping dogs lie (IMHO). Otherwise, I'd visit the wiring, layout, and grounding scheme.
Good luck!
