Variation in usable capacitor ratings?
I would personally replace all of them as a kit especially if they are being
used as timing or wave shaping. The higher capacitance rating when being
used as a filter is going to remove more ripple.

Hi everyone,
I've been upgrading a simple power supply in a satellite receiver
using a kit provided by a company selling spares.
I've noticed that there's quite a bit of difference between the
original capacitor values and the upgraded replacements provided, for
instance
Old New
47uF, 35V 100uF, 35V
2200uF, 10V 2200uF, 16V
330uF, 16V 470uF, 35
etc
My querstion is: do the upgraded capacitors only work together as a
set or can any one of them be replaced with the upgraded value?
In the latter case, a follow-up quesion would be how much variation in
capacitor value is permissible (presumably as long as it's higher)?
