Subject:      Throwing a tantalum
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Greetings once again:
I am planning on including a tantalum capacitor in my box of "spares" to take with me on a long trip. My 87 Westy has never experienced the dreaded "highway" bucking, but then I've only had it for less than a month and put under 200 highway miles on it. The only tantalum cap I can locate is 16 volt, 22 microfarrad from Radio Shack. Before I pay the princely sum of .79 cents each (plus $2.50 S&H) will the almighty list please advise re: is this the correct cap for the AFM fix?
Thanks
Bob W.
