One of my early attempts at soldering an amp, whch was a quick and half hearted effort, gave me a badly surging amp. An imporvement since it did not work at all before, and it gave me hope. After throughly soldering it up again yesterday, it's one of my three working like a champ. Surging is almost always the amp, and can be bad joints it seems, but naturally I can't swear that's it. Take an iron to it, can't hurt..
I have another surging amp on the way from a friend here at some point, I'm curious to see what it does.
I do plan on writing up something on cruise servo testing and disasembly/lubricating. Some problems can obviously be caused by them, but as a man told me once, most of the cruise servo's left on cars in salvage yards or what have you are good by virtue of the fact that the amp went out so early in life, they have had little use.
