[GreenKeys] M28 motor won't start

The AWA Museum has a M28 KSR who's LM3 motor does not always start - 
just wiggles a little. If you reach in and give it a push, it then runs 
OK.  I assume the problem is either the motor start capacitor or the 
relay contacts.  Is either one more likely to fail??

Could the relay contacts just need cleaning?

Bul. 295 says capacitor is #122245; 43-52UF.  Any suggested sources for 
the starting capacitor? Grainger has one, but looks like it might be too 
big in diameter.

Thanks,

Duncan
