Always,always ESR those blue caps in these Zeniths..Causes a multitude
of strange symptoms. The other day I had a Zenith with 14 caps bad. I
just kept ESR'ing and replacing,as the picture got better and better.My
Dick-Smith ESR meter is a must.It would be near impossible to zip from
one cap to the other without it. If I was running from a burning
building the Dick Smith would be under my arm! (Wife under the other!)
