..Well in fact any time the wind blows .. With the wind 20 mph or  
more the rotor stalls , I did use # 14 wire on the motor leads and I  
have a junction box at the base of the tower were I change to regular  
rotor cable going up the tower .

box and still leave the  capacitor in the control box ? would this 
help?  
 
    Yes and yes. It's a common problem and a common  solution.
