Jan:
Back when I used salt water caps I used (12) 40 OZ bottles to get about 
.01uF. If I remember correctly, regular size bottles give about .0008uF or so 
for each bottle. For your 8kV 50mA transformer you should need about .02uF. 
Try using twice as many bottles in your salt water cap & see if you get any 
improvement.  Jim
