Very helpful video. I am working on recapping a Japanese VA0 launch Saturn. It has the same 2 through hole capacitors as yours and were pain to remove. I ended up with a couple of the holes getting filled with solder, tried everything to suck them out and it didn't work including using some wick. I was thinking about using my hot work station to heat up the area and then pushing the new capacitors through the holes. Heating up the pads behind the board with my solder gun isn't working helping, maybe there was to much solder left inside. If you have any ideas let me know.. Again great work, I wish I would of watched your video before I started lol
