I had my left hand across the top of the cap, with my palm against the
wires.  Had a hard time turning it with one hand, even after loosening
the nut quit a bit.  And I'm sure I was leaning against the car.

Did all that, everything looked good except for a slight film of
corrosion on the copper prongs.  The cap is only a couple years old, as
I had it and the wires replaced.
