English please? Haha.

So i checked the resistance (it's the one that uses the omega sign on the dial, i think) and it gave me 1.019 on the first pair and 1.023 on the other pair. I guess that means they are well within the 5% and are in good working condition?

I already ordered some replacement caps, hopefully ill be able to solder them.

At first glance it looks like the small 33 uF has leaked but is it enough to cause that problem? The other caps look alright, no leak, no weird shape.
Now,...
