did you check under the IF cover for any bumble bee caps? there is a .01 in there that couples the noise invert to the sync sep, seems like it could cause issues with sync.

I am going thru a CTC-9 now. What I do for what its worth is lift one leg of a cap, and use an old school cap tester. If the cap test bad, then I replace it, but before doing that I take the new cap and put it back on the cap tester.

Most of the time the old caps leak but you can get some indication of the value on the cap tester. By leaving all the settings alone, and trying the replacement cap on the tester, you can do two things, verify the value of the replacement and verify the replacement it good.

This step avoids 10x order of magnitude errors and finds the bad new caps. I have had a few of those yellow caps shorted when brand new.
