Finding a 100uf oil-filled "run" cap is not

expensive (as Jay pointed out).
Often, older oil-filled capacitors will have the 'nasty' oil in them
containing carcingenic PCBs, which is part of what makes oil-filled caps
hard to find. I've often pondered on that fact with the big caps one
sees at surplus stores. I.e.: which are the ones that transform your
home into a mini-superfund site if you cut them open?
