It sounds like a vertical deflection problem. Check for bad solder joints and dodgy capacitors around the v-deflection chip. (chip will be on heatsink plate)

Check your local library for SAM Photofact #4662. It will give you the schematic diagram and probably troubleshooting instrutions. One or more of the electrolytic caps in the vertical circuit are bad and need to be replaced. If you can't look at it at the library, you can download it at www.samswebsite.com for $27.50 (looks likw their prices have gone up again).
