Acck! These are PCB containing capacitors! Your house may now be
a superfund site. I'd get those replaced with equivalent non-PCB
capacitors, and see how bad it will be to have them disposed of by
a licensed handler of those materials. Most especially, you really don't
want to keep using 30+ year-old capacitors, that might blow up on
you, and make an honest hazardous waste dump of your shop. And,
if one of them does blow, you really wouldn't want to keep using the
shop.
