Just finished recapping a 40-190. Two difficulties came up; first, the wiring for the push buttons blocks access and has to be carefully detached from the chassis and moved out of the way. The second was how hard it was to get the old solder to melt. I decided to leave the resistors to some other time. It plays very well; I am now working on touching up the finish on the case. The folks here are very helpful. Good luck, have fun, and be patient!
