Default Removing Large Electrolytics

Once you remove the solder "ADD MORE". Yep, add more. Suck that out.

It has the tendency to heat other areas.

You can also add a solder removal alloy form Chip-Quik.

You can break off the tabs sometimes. You can cut the can sometimes. I'd use these methods at last resort.

Solder with a low temperature allow after removing most of the solder and suck out is my best suggestion.
