Unfortunately it would only make matters worse in Virginia. With temps between 90 and 100 and relative humidity about the same it would not work. Now, if we could just get rid of the high humidity it would work. For the moment, sitting on a block of ice seems to work the best if no A/C is available.
WRACE has a Supco6 hard start capacitor that did not improve his A/C starting. Maybe you could work a deal with him for the Supco6 to use on your 3/4 h.p. swamp cooler? Locked Rotor current on a 3/4 h.p. motor will be high - something like 54+ amps. Not enough surge in Champ 3,500 or any other make/model of same power class to do anything with that current for more than two-three cycles. The motor without a capacitor most likely takes a minimum of 30 cycles to drop locked rotor current to a level where the 3,500 could maintain it.
