Bought a 3/4 HP Milwaukee pedestal grinder at a garage sale. Weighs maybe 230 lbs with the pedestal. Supposedly it ran at the seller's place, but when he brought it to Chuck's garage, it would not run and makes the hummmmmm sound instead. I trust Chuck 100% as I have known him for a while.
So I bought it for $20, hoping for a quick fix.
My own hypothesis is that it may not even be the cap, but some contact became loose in the starting circuit due to moving this grinder from one garage to another.
