I would not change it because doorknobs aren't susceptible to age.

Subject: [AMRadio] Valiant doorknob cap
Anyone have a (better??) replacement for the doorknob cap in the tank
circuit of a Valiant?
I'm doing an overall re-cap prior to getting on the AM air - I can order
a capacitor that exceeds the specs, but there is the structural question
in that the doorknob is also a spacer.
It's 500 pf at 10 - 20 KV IIRC...
Lemme know ASAP if yo've got something you'd like to sell...
