Thank you for reply!

No, I don't have ESR meter. Only tool I have is 29-Range Digital
Multimeter from RadioShack.
For N/S pincushion problem, could you please specify which
electrolytics I should be looking? Or maybe just an idea on what area
or which board? I'm guessing C18xx's in VC board and C5xx's in A
board but since I'm not a professional repair person, I cannot be sure
about it...
