i have a friend .. who has a very old motor ...lkooks a strange one ...with either a big bearing on the front or epicyclic gearbox.
the caps buggered on it ...keeps popping the earth leakage
says its 60 mfd
this is a huge one ...
squarish about 2x3x4 inches .
the 60 mfd ones i find on ebay are cylindrical and very much smaller.
will they do
BTW ... oddly.....the motor does starts on its own without being pushed in one direction and gets up to speed quickly when the cap is taken out of circuit...but don't know if it will do the same when connected up and running something.
there is no label on the motor ...so dont know how many hp it is or the speed ... will measure tommorrow.
all the best.mark
