Also, watch out for older 1084 monitors that have a round connector on the back. These had a problem with the heat causing the solder to "putty" (meaning the connections on the 1084 system board degrade and would cost so much to repair that you'd be better off getting a different model).
Well a soldering iron + some tin is not that expensive?
Usually the flyback transformer joints crack, all you need to do is resolder those with a bit of fresh solder and off you go.
