Whats the difference between a motor run and a motor start capacitor ?

None... the difference is the motor the capacitors are the same.




No it's not, while you can use an oil filled run capacitor as a start
capacitor, you *cannot* use an electrolytic start capacitor as a run
capacitor. Start capacitors are rated only for momentary use.
