    The RPM's of the new motor are to high. You need a 825/850 RPM motor and if the original motor was OEM then you should increase the HP to 1/4 instead of 1/5th.

    The other motor is available you just need to find it. Always make sure to replace the motor run capacitor with the exact one the new motor calls for.
