Default AC repair question

Talking to a friend who is an electrician, he told me that maybe just
the capacitor might be of the wrong capacitance.
The problem with buying one off the shelf is that its tolerance might
be off enough to throw the engine off.
Does anyone know how to calculate the torque for an engine with a
capacitance?
I use to know this 30 years ago, but now, don't even know how to
google this question properly!!
Using a 7.5 MFD cap did not work. I tried a 10 MFD cap, which worked
for 10 mins.
BTW, I found a cheap motor at

Does anyone have experience with this brand,
PARTNERS CHOICE ??
