Super Sprint w/ 'ghost' cars - help

(1/2) > >>

OTTOgd:
I just bought a SS that supposedly plays decent but has 'ghost' cars and banding. I'm picking it up tomorrow. The seller is going to include a 2nd set of PCBs that he suggests I grab ICs from. What do you think - easy fix?

     

RayB:
Hey do you still need a monitor discharge?

OTTOgd:
Ack!

Hey Ray! I haven't gotten back to those other projects for a while, darnit. I'm not sure what I need.

What do you think of this SS?

RayB:
I have no idea what's going on there. Almost looks like board problems. But could be some monitor issues too... Tough call. I always go for a cap kit and then see what problems I'm left with.

OTTOgd:
Okay, I got it home. It has been suggested that this might be happening because there's a standard res monitor in there now. The sticker on the horizontal mount suggests it is a WG 19K4903 but that doesn't mean the chassis is, right? How can I discern the difference? Super Sprint is supposed to be med res. What do you think?
