Re: Capacitor Leakage

[Kyle DePasquale]

The boards all work fine, but I'm afraid that they will die soon if the 
capacitors keep leaking.  The leaks don't seem to be *that* major - 
only requiring cleaning about twice a year.

if there isn't really much that can be done.
If the board hasn't stopped working, remove the
leakers, clean things up and install new caps.
If it has quit working, it may just be bad caps or
it could be something else gone too.
No Mac is so rare (yet) that it's worth "heroic
effort"
to save a mainboard.
