Condensor values

Well it has got to that time, when I need to move onto modern condensors and ditch using NOS or old fashioned Mini condensors.

The NOS ones appear to be dried out and dont last more than about 2000 miles and the modern replacement Mini ones are just of such poor quality you need to carry a couple of spares round with you.

So we have decided to start using modern ones that we can buy from the likes of Maplins or RS - just one problem - how many microfarads (hope I have spelt that right) should they be rated at?

Can anytone enlighten us?
