Compressor Motor Help

The centrifugal start switch can be suspected since it's a mechanical device. It has to cycle high current many times
in the life of a compressor and gets a lot of wear and tear in a hostile environment (heat, vibration, dirt)

While waiting for the new caps to arrive, I easily removed the end bell without pulling the motor. The mechanism and points looked great, and Mr. Fluke confirmed continuity. The caps arrived yesterday, and I installed them last night - both run and start. She fired right up, and all was good again. Thanks for everyone's help.
