replacing a dual Ecap with 2
#23

I'm not sure exactly what the cans look like, but if they're anything like those in the 89, they have a waxy ring of cardboard around the base, where they are clamped in. The way I did it was heat the cardboard with a heat gun to melt the wax, then gently push it off. Use a hack saw to cut in the middle of where the ring was, and remove all the contents. I used a piece of 10 gauge wire for the new positive terminal, and notched a hole in the cut for the negative one. Then I heated the cardboard ring and slid it back over the cut. Between that and the clamps in the radio, it isn't going anywhere.

Like always, not sure if this applies or not...
