I did that and you are right it works with the red anode wire pulled. You
say repair the leak I don't see a leak but even so can you let me know in a
little more detail. I have cleaned and refilled lots of Magnavox type due to
the fluid getting merky but never had to repair a leak on an RCA. I am
wondering why it arc's is it because there is a hole where the fluid is
getting into where it doesn't belong?
