Don't worry, I wasn't still working on it at 9pm! I was unsure at first because I could not see how to remove the mower cover and I worried it was a disposable sealed unit with no "user serviceable parts inside". It looked as though it was held together with plastic rivets but I eventually found some screws in the wheel arches.
I had already looked at CPC but my capacitor had two leads molded into it, that ran to a connector block on the side of the motor. The block seemed quite loose and I didn't want to pull the wires with any force for fear of breaking the internal connections inside the motor. Fortunately the wire did pull out and had a flat, not fault (spell checker mistake), connector. From the CPC side it would appear they are called "blade" connectors. I will try and re-use mine.
The capacitor has arrived today but has a brown wire and a blue wire. I guess it's electrolytic? The old cap had two white wires and there are no markings on the connector. Which one should I connect where or doesn't it matter (or will it make the motor run backwards)?
Thanks again for all your help, you have saved me a fortune I'm sure.
