Warco VMC start capacitor

[DurhambuilderParticipant @durhambuilder]

After a week or so of temperamental starting and a few simple tests I found out that my Warco VMC motor start capacitor had failed. No worries 5 mins online found a replacement at under £10 and it duly arrived the next day. This has absolutely solved the starting problem but ignorant me didn’t realise it would be physically bigger than the one taken out and won’t fit in the control box. I can get a capacitor the same outer dimensions rated at 265v 150uF rather than the original 250v 150uF. I’m hoping nthe slight increase in max working voltage won’t make any difference, is that an ok assumption? Thanks.
