Marc,
Just cause I love you, let's translate Michael's excellent answer into executable actions. Take your voltmeter and measure the voltage at the motor with the motor running. Clamp the ammeter around one of the legs and measure the current. Read the wire size on the wiring.
Post those numbers, and the electrical guys can advise.
Look at the capacitor and read the rating on the side. It will be a number in microfarads. Replace it just for grins. They are relatively inexpensive.
