Thanks for the suggestion Ron. I just gave it a try and it worked quite well  However, the cone was in pretty crummy condition to begin with so I'd like to replace it.
Does anyone have an opinion as to what replacement cone to use ? I measure about 7.5" O.D. I'm contemplating an 8" from MAT Electronics but am not sure if it will fit properly.

Ugh. I'm glad I popped the cone out. This really needs to be cleaned out properly for the voice coil to move freely.
