Motor start capacitor - value ?

Just wondering if the OP knows for sure it's a capacitor-start
motor, rather than a capacitor-run motor? The second also gives
a higher running torque, but uses higher grade capacitors.
He did say something about a centrifugal switch, which suggests start
alone..
Umm.. A centrifugal switch could also indicate a simple split phase
motor: where the LR ratio of a secondary winding gives a small phase
change and does not require a capacitor.
Long while since I actually anything about this:-)
