What should I buy for my M44? (preventive maintence stuff)

Post by vwguy3 »

So I got a M44 off of craigslist awhile back and want to replace the the caps before I install it. I was going to try and replace the caps myself but decieded it might be a little too hard for me. I think I could do it, but am too scared F something up. I ended up talking too a coworker of mine that works in the electronics shop. He said that it would be really easy to do the caps for me for some dounuts. I need some help figuring out which ones I need. I know you guys usauly get the caps from digikey or something. Can anyone tell me which ones to replace and to replace them with. Is there anything else that I should maybe have him replace too? I know of the tall skinny cluster of four and the short round blue ones. A picture of anymore needing replacement would be great!!!!

Thanks
