I'd use 3 capacitors in parallel. 22uF (which is probably adequate),
then a 1uF and a 100nF all in parallel, because I'd be worried about
filtering high frequency electrical noise from the starter.

Does that actually work? My rather simple understanding of capacitors was
that if you stick them in parallel, they just behave like one larger one. Or
is the resistance of the wiring somewhere providing a useful effect?
