Hello Bernie,
My drawings show this replaced with a .05 uf. capacitor, so a .027 would
probably work or maybe even a .05.

Here's one for the service technicians who specialize in or who are
intimately familiar with the Cambridge 220-II:
Schemtaics, page 5, for board 3-C: In the center of the page is
capacitor C180 which is a .025 uf (or 25k pf) ceramic disc, 100v
capacitor. This has blown apart (pieces) in my organ, and so I have
the following questions:
1. Before replacing it, should I be checking or looking at a "bigger
cause" that would cause this to happen? If so, what?
2. I have searched through both the huge catalogs of Tesco and
Allied, and have found only .022 or .027 uf caps at 100V, but nowhere
can I find a .025 uf. Since this appears to be involved in the
clocking timing area I would assume it is a critical component....or
not? Which size can I "try" to see if a) it solves the problem, or b)
if it blows up?
3. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Bernie in ND
