Assuming the capacitor is in a non critical area, eg as a filter cap in a
supply line, you could use the 3000uF cap instead. The things to watch out
for are physical size (obviously) and temperature rating, make sure that if
the original is a 105 degree C part (it will be marked as such, if not it is
85 degree C), the replacement has an equal or better temperature rating.
