Dropped it off to a repair shop. Guy had thousands of parts all over the place. I like that. $95 to replace the capacitor, new bearings, and a new seal kit. Seems like a fair price, mainly because I don't have time to screw with it. New motor is $400.
Ken,
Does your guy only work on pool motors, or is he a general repair guy? I need to find a guy that can diagnose/fix my air compressor motor.
Thanks.
Looks like a general electric motor guy. He had a bunch of vending machines and it looks like he runs a vending service. Best Electric Motors 972-225-8575, Robert.Quote:

Left him a VM today. Haven't heard back yet.
Try Tolbert[/B] in garland off of dividend around Jupiter and miller. They are cheep as well.
Thread Resurrection here. Used Ken-O's 'Best Electric' on a polaris booster pump. Been installed a few weeks now and it is working like new. Good tip. I called Tolbert but they were about $35 higher for similar work.
The other pump died last month. I picked up the capacitor at Leslie's for $35, good as new. If anyone needs a Polaris quick connect I have 3 extra ones. They come in bags of 4. The first one lasted 6 years until it started to leak.
