Re: Space Fury Cocktail FS

It's really easy to reach in the game (with the game unplugged!) and
disconnect the monitor cables. Then unscrew the monitor bolts and pull the
monitor out *carefully*. You might want to check the big power transistors
that are mounted on the black heatsinks and tell us the part number on
them.

A lot of Cap-Kits have been sold in the past for the Electrohome
G08 monitors with transistors that are way under-rated for 2N6259
replacements. Replacements that are well suited for this monitor are not
hard to find and are easy to change.

That's just one possible thing you
could check.

BTW - I live in Southern California - so I'm a bit far. :)

it was roasting the deflection output transistors. The deflection outputs
on those are basically audio amps, so something was amiss in the driver
section. A leaky driver won't immediately blow an output, but it won't take
long. And its common for drivers to get taken out along with a shorted
output device. From what I remember they're DC coupled so anything thats
not right can freak the outputs out.

 The repair person said
that after a minute or 2 of game play it would slowly burn out the _______
. Maybe the caps? I am not sure at all about what he exactly said. This
is not my area of expertise at all. You dont live local to me in PA do
you? Ted ----- Original Message ----- FROM: Matt Rossiter [1] TO:

What kind of damage was done
to the monitor? What would happen after a few minutes of working?

The
nice thing about fixing Sega XY cocktail monitors is you can easily pull
them out and test them right in front of the game. I used to have a Space
Fury cocktail and I actually used it to test other G08 monitors.

of this list for many years, but I do not think I have posted in many
years. I have owned my upright Space Fury since 1992 and I have purchsed
Clay's convert-a-game, but have honestly never installed it. Two years
ago I bought the rare Space Fury cocktail game and somehow the monitor or
monitor board was damaged in shipment. Had 2 arcade professionals in my
area try and diagnose and repair the problem but they can not get the unit
working for more than a few minutes before things go wrong. To make a
long story short, I have a nice and rare Space Fury cocktail game which I
am willing to sell. I paid $750.00 for this item plus shipping two years
ago. Please contact me if interested. I would really prefer LOCAL PICKUP as
I do not want to be involved with packaging and shipping. Ted Patton
