Just order a decent Panasonic FC/FM from Farnell and look again.

I'll be away for 2 weeks but I could send you one cap after that if you're on a budget.

Thanks for the offer, Jean-Paul. I've a Dubilier 105C low-ESR I'll try first, see how that performs. If I leave its leads a few mm long under the board I can try Mike's film cap across it too.
