~~~~Out of a 1970s Pioneer SX1250 receiver, 4 capacitors 22000uf 80v 85C Nippon Chemi-con (brand) C E W below logo. Aprox 5 in. tall and 2.5 in. diameter. A couple of these are have what appears to be an overheated area on the center of the bottom between the screw terminals, bubbled and leaked a dark brown goo.

Found 22000 uf 100v, Capacitance Tolerance + 50/- 10 %
Part number 95F4479 at

Are these satisfactory replacements? Seems like a drop in fix, but since I'm not a tech I need your expertise. Thanks in advance.

So long as they physically fit and you observe proper polarity, i see no problems with doing this at all. I would only add that you should orient the polarity of the new capacitors in the same direction as that of the old capacitors. If in doubt, mark the cabling with some "Scotch tape" before removal in order to minimize any confusion that may come about after all the parts are removed. Sean
