The motor on this compressor just hums when turned on, and will turn slowly buzzing loudly if you give the compressor pulley a spin. I understand that this could be caused by the capacitor. My question is how close does the MFD of the replacement cap. need to be. I have another 1 hp motor that I took out of service for heating up under a load. I have yet to look at the cap. on it, but wondered if there is a MFD range that it would have to fall in to be a replacement. Does the label in the picture on the one off the problem the compressor show it as 540-648MFD? TIA!
