Hi Bill,

Thanks for the reply.

The original motor was AC with a delay relay instead of start cap.
Therefore I cannot simply use a start cap as there is no centrifugal
switch in the motor. The AC motor runs fine, but I have to hand start it
to give it direction.



why don't you just add a momentary push button switch to energize the start
windings until you find a working delay relay (AKA start relay)

any decent moementary switch will work, it's cheap, and you won't be trying
to adapt motors
