There are a lot of "capacitor changers" on this site. I suppose this gives them some sense of validation. The poster is a neophyte from all indications. He has found the problem and resolved it. To continue further seems unwarranted. Working with old equipment without experience can cause new problems. Oxidized solder connections require addition of new solder. Blobs of solder may short out. Attempting to remove old wire leads may break terminals. Tinning on leads may have oxidized making new solder not stick. There are a whole host of things, stuff happens. Replace a bunch of components and you will be responsible anything that happens to this in the future.
+1. Lots of cap changers on this site. Also, at some point in digging into this amp, if you go further than needed, something will break including your friendship as you try to explain, "...all I did was change a few old capacitors out, I didn't blow that transformer!" There is a lot of vibration though, instead of swapping the large paper caps out, maybe you can wire-tie them together.
Reminds me a of a friend who's computer was running slow. I put more memory in it, cleaned up the c: drive which was about full, took out about a million temp files, emptied the trashcan, etc. How the hell was I supposed to know that he used the trashcan as a folder? Were's all my pictures? Actually stored things in there. I worked on the PC before it was released in '80-'81 and am still learning things.
