[Shop-talk] Compressor woos

[Pat Horne]

John, is there a start capacitor on the motor? If so, see if it is leaking or swollen. You should be able to have the motor shop test it for free. If there are two capacitors, one is start & one is run. They will be of different capacities so you can get them back in the correct place. 

Peace,
Pat
