I caught flack from time to time from my parents for having too much junk here. But, my Mother would always tell people "at least I know where he is when he's got his head stuck in a radio or TV". I remember my Dad telling me once to clean my room and all I did was shove everything under the bed. He went in there and pulled everything back out and gave me a good tongue lashing and the cleaning of my room turned into an all day project.

I don't know about the monitor; but, I've seen a few Sony TV's with crappy pictures that were caused by loose connections on the CRT socket board. It was usually the socket itself.

As far as no horizontal deflection; I'd look at the horizontal output and horizontal yoke return circuit. There's probably a cap or resistor that has given up. Look for any capacitors that are cracked, swollen, or burned looking. These HV caps are usually blue, brown, or yellow in color.
