Default Replacing Large Electrolytics

Why you would put 40 year old caps into ANYTHING is beyond me. Reformed or not. They may "pass the tests" now but they will not hold up long term. Spend the $25 and get new parts. Unless, that is, you like doing things twice. Feel like risking that PCB again in 2 years?
