Ok so here's the story so far...
I capped my chassis on my 27e so I started a tube swap, due to bad blue gun.
I found a donor and hooked it up using the the TVs bonded yoke, image was good, however reversed, upside down and too narrow(not filling the full width of screen).
I replaced the bonded yoke with original and hooked the monitor back up powered on the game.
Neck glowed like a light bulb and resistor R431 started sparking so I killed the power. Then I noticed that i forgot to plug in the yoke wires, plugged them back in and no change.
I'm in the process of going back over everything to see if I shorted a wire or something but if anyone has other ideas what could have happened please help.
Thanks, Jason
