my air conditioner needs a new sh start motor capacitor. the original that needs to be replaced is a 4/35uF… and the one I was sent is a 35/4uF… the numbers are inverted…voltage the same as all other infos, but before i go and connect it i wanna make sure it works… any technicians perhaps here with an idea? EDIT__ Here are some pics added after as requested: 1-in order going down:broken Capacitor (taller one) 2-New Capacitor (shorter) 3-last pic is to show there’s one taller than the other, the old one broken being the taller one 4-Old top 5-New top

rob, yes you can. I just double checked on it again. All it means is that you have two capacitors in one can. A 35mfd and a 5mfd and a common terminal. Just make sure that you check the outside of the can for which is which capacitor. If you can post an image and we can probably help you with the hook up.
