ok i think i have narrowed my problem down to either a run capacitor or my start capacitor

my fan on top of my unit runs but the compressor will hum for about 3-5 seconds every 5 minutes or so . Is it possible for my duel run capacitor to let the fan run but not let the compressor run, or is the problem my start capacitor?

Yes it is. If you replace it make sure you replace with the same as in it now ie 35/5 or 40/5 etc. The rating is stamped on the capacitor
