Scroll down the right side menu to #46-Capacitors. A very informative tutorial which also includes some tips on charging and discharging a stiffening cap. While you're there, bookmark the page. It's full of tremendous info.

just hook it up, (it'll spark)
be prepared to sacrifice some voltage. everytime I've used a cap its brought the voltge rails down from 14.4 to 13.6. I dunno why. can I ask why your installing 2 farad worth of capacitance?
