Just a few questions about replacing the capacitors in a G5 iMac.
1. What type of capacitors should I get to replace them? Obviously, the same
voltage and model number, but if I remember, there's a couple different kind;
electrolyte, aluminum, and whatnot, and the dry kind are better?
2. Should I replace just the bulging ones, or replace all of them? There are
23, and only 5 are actually bulging; only one is actually leaking. I'm leaning
towards just replacing all of them, but it really depends on cost. I'm just
wondering if there's a good chance the others will go bad, or after this long
all the ones that are going to go bad already have?
Thanks,
