I have been having problems with my gen. I ordered a new capacitor from westerbeke.com using the part number from my parts manual that came with the boat. I received the new one a few weeks ago but just got to the boat and removed the old one. They are not the same and i was wondering if they are interchangeable. The one i removed is an 18um and the one i got from WB is a 16um. Also the voltages are slightly different. I tried all day to reach WB but was unsuccessful with no returned call. Anyone have any knowledge on this? In the attached pic the longer one is the one i removed from the gen.
