Hi Scott,
Which Maxwell is it? If it is the .03/35Kv we often see, it is rated for 50%
voltage reversal which means if you are up in the 12-15kv range, 2 should be
in series as the peaks are ~17K (on the line) and ~21k respectively.
Submerging seems like good idea to me as it will help keep the heat down and
the lost oil from being displaced by air or other contaminates. Someone
please correct if I'm off here.

Everybody,
I have a maxwell pulse capacitor, which I use for my 6-in
coil. It seems to work just fine, but I have noticed that it leaks a
small amount of oil (just a tiny bit, barely noticeable). Is this
really bad, or perfectly normal? Should I place the capacitor in a
bath of oil to prevent further leakage? Thanks.
