Barry- I think the Cap is really a phase control in the reversing circuit, not a starting Cap.. The value may be more critical than for starting. Check the manual.

Tnx for all the responses about my stuck rotor.  Of course, today, it
is working just fine! However, I thought I'd replace the motor
starting cap anyway, as it is 14 years old.

The original cap is rated 130-156 mfd.  Is the value critical?  I
have a motor starting cap here that's 88-108 mfd.  Is that close
emough?
Tnx,
