I added 4 caps in parallel for a total of 1760 uF, thanks to Brian.... it was what my friend had in stock so I grabbed them. it works wonders. I'll give props to anything that is cheap and effective.

also read the thread on adding a resistor to charge the cap. I still have to get to a supply store for one. I give up on opening old electronics now. I haven't found a single resistor!!
