On the flip side, I just cap'd a monitor in a Galaga which now works like
new. Now I'm going to go back through the caps that I pulled to see which
of them are bad or way out of tolerance. This way I'll know which stages
to attack in the future for a given mode of failure. Besides, with these
older monitors, I'd rather replace a bunch a caps in one shot instead of
waiting for them to individually fail. I think this approach gives you the
best of both worlds, you find out which part(s) was the culprit and get rid
of future potential failures.
