Hi,

Does every different motor require different size capacitors. or is it a 'one size fits all'?

For normal brushed motors 0.1uF disc ceramic capacitors  are a proven component. Normal arrangement is one across the motor terminals (might be enough on its own) and one from each terminal to the case.
