I'd recommend at least a 400v capacitor--and if you can get one
rated for AC, all the better.

It has to be rated for AC, because it is located before the fuse. These safety-critical capacitors are marked "X2". They can easily be recognized by their UL, VDE, S, T�V etc markings -- no regular capacitor has these.

Recycle one from any broken household appliance that has a motor inside...
