Model 86 Help
#3

Good advice, Terry.

Your resistor color codes are NOT what the later standards were. Therefore you must be sure to trace where each one is in order to determine correct value in accordance with schematic. If it is like the early sets that I have worked on, most of the resistors will be out of tolerance and will have to be replaced.

There are several threads here about re-stuffing the cans. Several good techniques here!

Also note that there is a good a good article in the tech section here about by-passing the sp-ppg transformer, as they are often bad.
