Did you keep the original Cap? Some shops can check the cap for you.. However I can't point you to 'em. My cap testers are not up to the task.
I just ordered a hard start kit for my Advent for other reasons.
The “original” run cap is still in there. I actually spoke with Advent tech support and it appears the run cap is NOT the original nor is it the original specs. My air requires a 69+5 dual cap so the 50+10 isn’t right at all. Given that my guess is that the mismatched start cap overheated the run cap. They sent me a new one today and I went and bought one as well from the local HVAC store. Turns out the CORRECT cap is a lot easier to find.....
