Capacitor 22uf vs 20 uf

[socratez]

I bought replacement nichicon capacitors but bought the 20uf 50V instead of the 22uf 50V and the 220uf 25V instead of the 222uf 25V.

Am I going to have any issues with this?

Edit- I got the 22uf equivalent but I still could not find the 222uf 25V equivalent.

Can I see the 20uF and the 222uf caps? Those are odd value caps for today typical value. Typical lytics cap has +/-20% Tolerance.

So here are the caps. Now that I found it out of the trash I realized I misread one of them.

The smaller cap is the starter cap I believe, it's isolated by itself by the transformer.

Yep, I've been noticing a trend with the mosfets being a secondary problem after reading some of the posts in here.

I'm still trying to understand the principles behind testing mosfets using the 'Seconds to Black guide'.

I'd like to understand the physical reasons why the test are done in the order they are because I learn things easier that way.
