the failure to start may be a bad capacitor (<$50) to fix but given the age, the bearings (which can also be replaced) may also be close to wearing out...
if you want to save a little money and have the tools/skill/time to remove the motor from the pump and take it to a electric motor repair shop they can probably tell if its cost effective to repair...
have done it once to my pump and got another 5 years from it before a winding open circuited...
