you have to CHARGE you amp...wtf are you tlking about? amps dont' hold a charge the caps holds the charge. if you want to CHARGE the cap you can hook a batterie charger to it or...if you are crazy hook the cap to a alternator, if you want to discharge the cap jsut hook it to any sub that pounds but normally you dont' discarcaps you simple let them die out over about 2months.

p/m if yuo have any questions about it!

Just disconnect the wires from the cap, remove wiring for amp, rewire new amp, reinstall wires on cap. You can get a charging diode or some caps come with a charging board to attach to the cap that uses an LED to indicate when cap has fully charged. You are going to need to put your battery back in for charging. Just be sure to remove cap wires before doing any amp changes to reduce the chance of arcing the cap.

No, should be still charged unless you drained it. A good cap will keep its power for months. When you go to reinstall your inline fuse to your power line and it sparks, that will be the cap "topping itself" back up. Shouldn't be a problem. The resister just helps to slowly charge it to batt level removing that initial spark.
