I got this Star Wars machine a while ago and it played blind. It has very low plays and had an untouched amp monitor. Our local repair man Ian (retrohacker) brought it back from the dead. It still had the dead red in it, which was replaced with a new one. Also he replaced lots of little things that the High voltage took out when it went. He could tell you what else he replaced because I have no clue.
Anyway, the problem is after it warms up about half hour or so it start to flash blue spider vector lines on and off. The longer it is on, the more it does it and longer intervals. Ian is positive it is a short in the tube. He tested the tube and it comes up fine. He tried to clear it, but it still is happening. I think he is stumped at this point, so I thought I would try asking the pros to get some new ideas. I made a short you tube video of it. Here is the link:
