capacitor value

[g coley]

hello everyone. im new on here. i have an old Air Industrial Developments compressor. type EP7. 1968. 240volt. i think 1.5 hp. problem is i think it may need a new capacitor, and theres no way i can read any of the markings on the cap. any one have any idea what i should look for. thanks in advance. geof
