Sometimes the raw power is the run winding with the higher resistance and inductance, with the lower resistance cap tuned winding actually taking more current because of the resonance, and because of the cap, generates the magnetic phase difference that makes it run. That is the first config I'd try, but I'd also bring it up at half voltage from a powerstat to judge how hot it runs. It likely will run in either config, but starting torque will suffer and it will run hotter in the wrong config. Both the winding R and the inductance are part of such a motors design.
One would be on much firmer footing if your meter can measure inductance, then the capacitor should be in series with the coil having the least inductance as that would generate the maximum phase difference.
