If you can't find a cap to remove you could cut the capacitor can with a pipe cutter like you would use for plumbing., and then see if you can find a plumbing part to couple the two halves together from the inside. I have one that I bought that will fit up to a 2'' pipe, the cutting wheel is mounted on the end of a square shaft.
