I am rebuilding the flippers on my Taxi. I have a bunch of parts left
over from miscellaneous rebuild kits I am trying to use. The large
yellow capacitors in my game aren't marked. The manual calls for 2.2
uFd, 250V, 20% capacitors. The ones I have on hand are the same, except
+/-5%. Are these alright to use?

Thanks

Gerry

Yes, they are alright to use. In fact 15% better tolerences. LTG :)

Definitely. 5% vs 20% means that they are screened to a higher
precision. Press on.

Thanks guys. They will in no way affect flipper strength will they?

Shoudn't affect flipper strength, primarily to reduce arcing on EOS
switch contacts I believe.
