ceiling fan capacitor updated w/ pictures

replacement ceiling fan capacitor

My old capacitor is 250 V AC - 3 wires - 1 gray, 1 purple with a 2.85uF +/- 5% and 1 yellow with a 1.4 uF +/-5% - the only close one I can find has a red wire, purple 2.5 uF and yellow 1.5 uF. The model # (I believe it's the model #) is E183963. My question is can I use this with the lower uF on the purple (2.5 uF vs original 2.85) and slightly higher on the yellow (1.5 uF vs original 1.4). If not, can anyone recommend where I can find a more suitable replacement? Thank you much!

I found a capacitor on Amazon which I believe falls within the acceptable range. I've attached a picture of it. Please let me know if you think it is suitable. Thanks.

@bobe27036 yes, the 2nd one will work. With capacitors, you can always go higher with the capacitance but never lower.
