Thanks for merging these threads Sam! I didn't pickup that they were connected Icon_crazy

Walt, that cap would be #26 with two 20 uF electrolytics in it. Here's a thread where I restuffed a similar one. The multi ecap in my thread had 3 caps in it and one common negative lead but its the same idea. It took a lot if digging and drilling to get the guts out and it is easy to mess up the outer cardboard can. I've also made a simulated can when I could not get the guts out.
