Admiral liked those centering controls; I have some and darn, you look at them funny and they go out of adjustment.

This is a neat set, nice style, deserves to ride again. The initial problem very well may have been a tube-we would need to know more details of what the picture looked like. As others have pointed out, by now the caps have most certainly gone south. You might be able to get it to power up but I would expect problems, especially in the vertical. It just needs a good going-over. That thing is probably chocked full of black beauties. Replace them with new caps, sell the old ones on ebay to pay the bill!
