We replaced the capacitor for good measure already before we replaced the condenser fan motor. The new motor also came with a secondary inline capacitor which we wired in. The condenser fan kicks on everytime and stays running, it's just blowing 75 instead of 60. It ran a lot last night and it was raining and hot. I can check for a leak this evening when I get home if it doesn't rain (clay roofs with rain aren't safe to climb on...)@tbrown If you have a multimeter you can check the condenser motor and also the capacitor if it has one, I can guide you to do it, it is important to know if you should change the condenser motor or if only replacing the capacitor works, although if I remember correctly the last time you had to put oil in the motor and that is not a good sign.
