The crt still looks good so I would re cap the monitor. It is a RGB monitor so a tv chassis would not work. Google amusements plus in Rochester and give them the make and model number of that monitor. They might have a cap kit for it. I can show ya how to re cap the monitor, It is not that hard and will last for years when done. The cabinet did clean up nice, Trust me, It did not look that good when Tim got it

Probably 4 or 5 electrolytics tops, since it does look good as everyone's mentioned. Is it a Sanyo monitor by any chance? I remember seeing a Donkey Kong with one of those and it too had vertical troubles.

I don't recall what monitor Tim's game had. It was taken out of service long before I worked there. {They might have changed it with a newer one.}
I have a Sanyo monitor in my donkey kong and the picture is vary clear and bright with no burns. The best thing to do with the old monitors is re cap the whole chassis or it will fail again.

That's true, Ed. Capacitors can't be expected to last longer than 20-25 years !! After all they were never meant to last that long really....

Look at the manufacturer data. Needless to say, there are always exceptions . 46 years and counting on one of my Admiral sets.
