Tank II (1974)

[ChadTower]

The pics that get submitted to KLOV will be of a clean machine, not the pics I submit here.  Unfortunately, even though officemax.com promised the delivery of the smartcard reader today, it did not arrive.  Maybe tomorrow.

[ChadTower]

Okay, OfficeMAX sucks.  I ordered on monday for '1 day delivery' and it arrives today.  That's a full business week.  Nice job dickwads.

Anyway, since I now have the media reader, here are the pics I promised:

too cool    thanks for the pictures.  Looks like all it needs is a little canned air to blow out the dust bunnies.  And a splash of paint on the coin door... sweet can't wait to see the 'after' pictures.

[ChadTower]

HA... 'after pictures'... more like 'after I finish the landscaping, redo half the bathroom, paint the kitchen and living room... my honeydo list is so damn long at this point I'm considering committing a felony so I can go to jail and get some quiet.

I'd be willing to take the cab off your hands...

Man, it's smaller than I thought.  Should grabbed it after all.  

Nah...I have to finish my other five projects before I dive into another one!  

[RayB]

Nice little caberet? I wonder if they made big versions too?

And what is it with these cabinet designers back then, thinking our ears are in our crotches??

First off, replace every electrolytic cap in the thing, especially the bigger ones.

Do you need to replace them with the exact same size and specification?

I believe the rule is that the capacitance rating has to be exactly the same and the voltage rating must be the same or higher (but NEVER lower).

Everything you could ever want to know about replacing capacitors...
