EXRAY, Thanks for letting me know what I got into. I was cutting the bottom off of the capacitor with a Dremel tool and I was very suprised when a clear liquid started leaking out. Had never seen that before. Have to give Philco credit for having an excellent seal as it didn't leak or dry out in seventy years.
