Hey all, I have a Craftsman "pre" block grinder, Model 115.7566 type cr16e, 1/3 hp...According to the plate, it pulls 5.5 amps. From what I've seen on the regular 1/3 hp block grinder, they pull 3.8 amps. I need a new capacitor, but the existing one has no markings at all. Any ideas? Specs for capacitor, 1.5" diameter, 3.25" height..Motor, 1/3hp, 5.5amp, 115v, 3450rpm....Thanks in advance!!!

Here's what I used on a 1/3-HP pre-Block, m-115.7566. Heavy little sucker!
