I have an old Janett gear motor that is a 1/40 HP, 125 volt, 0.9 amp. It is missing the capacitor. I tried a cap that I had from another motor and it ran but not at the correct speed. It also became very hot quickly. I have two of these motors and one has the proper capacitor, however, it has no stamp of what it is. I swapped the capacitor to the other motor and it runs at the proper speed and stays within the temperature rise stated.
I need both motors. Can anyone advise me on the proper capacitor value to use? There is no internal switch so the cap is in the circuit at all times.
Thank you for any help, franky5
