This is a common problem on certain models of Philips Magnavox TV sets. The most common symptom is the screen will shrink and expand over and over. After the TV heats up for a while the video will work like normal. After a few weeks or months your TV will eventually stop working and not have video.

Picture from 60" to 19" then gone.

The fluid is a fairly easy replacement. They just need to remove the CRT with the bad fluid and drain the old fluid and clean the CRT and then replace the fluid. The Shrinking is just a Vertical Deflection problem which is also an easy repair. A new Vertical IC and a couple Capacitors. In my shop it would run @ $200.00 to fix both.
