Hi. I picked up a semi working space duel really cheap. The biggest problem is the game plays, but the only colors that show up are yellow and blue, and the blue is kinda dim. It has been worked on in the past because inside the machine was an old flyback, monitor board, and the large transisters that mount on the chassis. Should I be looking at something specific, or should it get the standard reflow of the header pins and a cap kit to start with?
Thanks, Jayme.
 
Update.... Ok I tried adjusting the color knobs with no luck. Then I reseated the neck board and now I have full color except one problem. I'm obviously no monitor tech, but it appears that when it is displaying a color that requires it to combine two colors together it is blurry. Like the two colors are not lined up on top of each other. Does this make sense? Please tell me there is an adjustment for this. Advice?
 
Convergence eh? I was afraid of that. It's not to bad so I think I'll leave it for now. I does however seem to pulsate in size but I only notice it on the screens with lots of writing, like the menu. Is that something typically covered by a cap kit?
This was not a game I was after, but i'm only in it 35 bucks, and it's kinda fun.
Thanks, Jayme
 
Also, does anyone have the part numbers for the marquee bulb and what I assume is the starter? They are both missing. The bulb is about 18 inches.
