The DC resistance should briefly show low ohms, then quickly rise to a nearly open circuit. One fault of an ESR meter is that from its perspective, a capacitor with a very low ESR looks the same as one that is shorted
That was my point: the capacitor looks shorted. Given it's age, low capacitance and being electrolytic, it should at least read several Ohms.
