Thanks a lot for the advice RodB. Yes, it does have a paper sleeve between the can and clamp (see attached pic). I’m going to re-stuff the can, so that raises another question. Since it is B - do I wire the negative (-) of the electrolytic to the can and the positive (+) to the terminal just like you would normally? I was planning on drilling a hole and attaching the negative side of the capacitor to the can with a screw and nut.
