now this is a new one... I am very curious as to what this capacitor like item is at the front of the motor. Can anyone shed some light onto this, and more so, does anyone know where a new one might be obtained????

If.... not for noise suppression, then it's a start capacitor....I'm still looking at the wiring. Simple test; remove it and see how the motor runs.

Definately! A sound supressor..universal type motors don't need a start capacitor. | ||

I decided to remove the "noise capacitor" per recommendations from some fine folks here. Here is the motor, cleaned, upper bushing oiled and ready to go. I hooked it up to a model L plug to test it out.
