So I was doing a project turning down some 3” pvc pipe and smelled something strange, thought it was the pipe. Came back about 30 minutes later to do a little more and the smell got real bad and I noticed the motor was smoking, unplugged it and lucky I didn’t burn up the house.
My 1ho motor has two on it, the bottom black one is fried. Is it a starting or running motor capacitor and any idea best place to buy the replacement one? I just found thus site and appreciate any help. Thanks!
Motor is not a variable speed one.
