OK, I bought a cap kit from twistedquarter.com. changed all the caps, now the pictures below are what I'm getting. The vertical size is turned up all the way. Now when I did the cap kit, 3 of the caps that were on TQ's list were different then the ones that were in the boards. One on the board had 330 uf 50V, TQ had 330uf, 50V:
Two on the board had 10uf 100V, TQ had 10uf 160V
and Three had 10uf 160V on the board, and TQ had 4.7uf 160V
Now the monitor didn't work great before hand, so I can't say these were the right ones originally, but it had to have worked at some point because these caps were old (not original, but still old). This is what could be causing all this right? Could it also be the pots? There kind of rough. input is, as always, appreciated.

Oh, it does work 100 times better then it did originally. Originally I could not get such a steady screen, but the squeezing was a problem then too.

The only ones that look to be different is the 4.7uF one. The others have the same microfarad value.. It doesn't matter if the voltage has a larger value.

Of course, if you have some 10uF caps, you could try putting one in. C311 is the only one that should be 4.7Uf.
 
Ah, that's right, I was checking it against the 4900 cap kit (which is usually the same). You might try replacing the vertical deflection transistors....
 
OK, bringing this back because I replaced the one cap and it not do the trick, the screen still pretty much looks the same. Any ideas?
