I am not very good on R2R motors, but do not think the hoover motor as described is like the Papst.

I am surprised that you have the Papst BP1303B (is your motor the same as the Brenell photo ?) because I didn't think the Papst is a shaded pole motor and thought previously your lack of a run capacitor could be explained by the capstan motor being a shaded pole motor ?
