Capacitor is used as an aid in starting.
Once the motor is turning it has no affect.

That depends upon the motor... A RUN capacitor is engaged all the time on
some motors. A START capacitor may be required, as you say, to start
motors under load. Whatever the case, replacement of the capacitor(s) is
a fairly common situation and can be fairly inexpensive, compared to calling
out an electrician or buying a new unitl.
