I got it apart and there were no "bulged top" electrolytics.
However, C1530 has a puddle of goo under and around it. This is the
filter cap for the +18 volt line. Its next door to the HV adjust control.
There is no obvious serious corrosion around it. Its also possible its C1545, 1546, or 1511.
One of the latter three, either 1546 or 1511, is a completely different
cap type, yellow-green in color. These caps are a 50V area.
What should I do? Just replace them and clean off the goo? If so, clean off with what?
Isopropyl alcohol does remove the stuff.
It is of course possible the goo is coming from something other than a cap.
Or perhaps send to someone who has worked on one of these or similar before?
