It's possible that it's due to a failure of the 'pincushion' correction
chip, that custom IC on the G08's deflection PCB. I don't have the
schematics handy but it seems to be the only place where the X and Y
axis' are cross linked. Give it a shot of freeze spray after the problem
goes away and see if it makes any difference.
