I have a 120 VAC, 1.7A, 60 Hz induction motor that runs a very recently made European blower unit. The motor has an 8 mfd run capacitor and no centrifugal switch. There are 6 wires to the motor, black, white, yellow, green, blue, and red. There is a coil between the black and white wires, and another coil between the blue and white wires, apparently wound in the opposite sense. The cap is between the green and blue wires, and there is an internal connection between red and green (no resistance between these). There is a third coil between yellow and red. I think that the black/white coil is the 0 phase run coil, and the yellow/red coil is a phase shifted run coil. I'm not sure what the blue/white coil does, but it is probably part of the phase shift circuit.
All coils have about the same resistance, 10 ohms, and the same inductance, about 15 mH.
The question is simply how to hook this thing up to 120 VAC. I am tempted to hook line to black and yellow, and neutral to white, but I don't want to fry the unit. Diagram is here: (unit is a twin blower)

All advice welcome! Thanks.
