BTW back in the early 90's I think, I had one of my first projo repairs with a distortion in the picture the Philips tech line said was low fluid.It was a Magnavox PTV3??, 46". Philips tech actually said to go to the drug store,buy good pharmaceutical distilled water and a bulb syringe, and if the original fluid was clear, just add the water to bring it up.It would mix OK. I did, and it was OK for the years i knew the customer. I never heard of the water deal on the forum. But: say you are rushing a fluid job, customer due to pick up next day, ran out of fluid.need one more bottle to top off the CRTs. Distilled water would save the day. Just a thought from a "ol timer". Phil Bader Philip Bader Jan Phyl TV Inc. (estab. 1976) 3420 Recker Hwy.
