Really got involved in emptying out the old capacitor. Didn't know it had so much fluid in it. Assumed some kind of acid so I had face shield, worked outside.
Used dremel to cut the crimped end off. Then drilled it out. Washed it with water, then fished the foil and stuff out with a hook. Washed it out again with soap & water and dried on stove.
