not to be dr.killhigh but it is not advisable to repair a capacitor imho. a) you would need to do this under high vacuum to ensure removing the residual air bubbles. dangerous and damaging if not done. b) depending on how long ago the fluid leaked out, oxidation could have taken place, compromising its performance and integrity. c) because you can't be sure of either of those you really can't depend on its rating or it safety. that said, i'd go mineral oil. <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=icon> Virus-free. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=link> <#m_8292905092552567907_DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> On Thu, Mar 28, 2019 at 4:08 PM Paul McGlen <mcglen2xxx@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi All, > I recently acquired some Atomic Research Pulse Capacitors.
