I have been working on repairing an old Sunbeam electric mixer from the 1950s. It has a 2 wire cord and a wax radio suppression capacitor with three leads: one to one power wire, one to the other power wire, and the third to the body of the appliance. The power wires attach to the field coil leads (brushed motor) at the same connection the suppresion capacitor makes. What would you recommend be done during cord replacement and component replacement? should i goto 3 wire or not? should i install a similar suppression capacitor (where do i find one if i should install one?)? Local electric motor repair shop and appliance repair shop have not been able to help with that component or give definite answer on cord. On-line appliance shop (sunbeam authorized and 40 years in business) only can get used capacitors (installing used is scary).
somewhat on topic, the speed control of this mixer has points, condenser (different purpose than aforementioned suppressor), and a ceramic resistor, and a mechanical governor!!! fortunately those components do have modern replacements available. RF interference was pretty bad previously, and the speed control components did test bad. the suppressor was all oil soaked.

It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
