I've read that some capacitors have an internal bleed resistor. You can verify this by measuring the DC voltage on the capacitor after it has started the motor. With a bleed capacitor the DC voltage should quickly return to 0 volts DC. There are several different voltages based on the design of your unit. I'd definitely put exactly same spec back in, unless you can verify from the manual/spec sheet that it should be a different size. www.directhvacsupply.com/start-capacitors/

Can you tell me why my start cap has no resistor also only 250V. They're blowing quite often lately. Thanks, by the way.
