So mechanically satisfying! So...free of the internet looking inside wondering what you're playing on it! Plug it into the freshly-restored manual XJS and have a blast! Aloha and take care!
Hi, yes I did. It’s quite fiddly and you have to be very careful. I bought a soldering station with a two prong soldering iron. You can do it with a normal soldering iron if the board is in good condition. If the old caps have saturated the board with acid then the tracks will lift easily. I buy any of these that I see on eBay, I probably have a 50% success rate with them.

Did you recap yours? How did you remove the old caps without damaging the tracks?
