[GreenKeys] LMU 11 motor

[Nick England]

Finding a modern cap that will fit seems to be impossible.

I did find a source of NOS 125v 88-108 mfd motor start caps that seem to
work fine.
1" dia x 2.4" long so they fit OK.

or

Mine came quickly and were very well packed.

It turns out that these are Teletype Part 181384 as used in the M33. Also
suitable as a substitute for 162074 used in 1/40 HP miniature motor M28 TD
and ROTR equipment (I just cut the wire leads short and soldered to them).

They also work OK in the 1/20 HP motors in the 28KSR and 28RO. Not the
correct value but I have replaced several with no issues. I haven’t tried
them in the 1/12 HP motor in the 28ASR which uses yet another value cap.

The motors with bad caps would just sit and tremble until I gave the fan a
quick pull and then they would spin up OK.

YMMV, no warranty, etc.
