I have 1 CRT monitor in my Astro city that starts out stretched a bit wide when I first turn it on, after a few minutes, it goes back to the correct aspect ratio. I don't know why it's doing this. I'm afraid to poke around and making it worse. I've tweaked with the H and V syncs and they didn't seem to do anything. When it's stretched, I can't even adjust the H width. The nob doesn't do anything. Once it goes back to normal, all the nobs work as usual again. Any ideas why it would be doing this?
 
When something on the screen changes over a few mintures after power on, I think it's an indication of a bad capacitor.
