Since replacing the bulb, it seems that my picture is tilted to the right about 1/2 inch or so. A local repair shop says the bulb has nothing to do with my problem. Any suggestions on correcting this problem?

Are these little spot lights? About the size of 1/2 dollar round and maybe 1.5 -2 inches long? 2 prongs about 1/2 inch apart? Take one of those lights and show it to a local hardware dealer like "Lowes". There are may types and some are 12V some are 110V. Thats why I suggest showing to the local hardware guy.
If anything were bad with the lamp or ballast, the TV would not have a picture, and would shut off in 30 secs. I think on these component 1 does not run HD inputs--only 480i +480p (progress. scan DVD). Component 2 runs up to 1080i HD but not 480i SD, I think. Your no sound must be something else.
The flickering is most likely due to a faulty fluorescent backlight. Once the bulb heats up the flickering usually goes away. Some bulbs are easier to replace than others so I would contact your local TV repair shop.
You need a primer bulb for a WalBro Carb. I am from the U.S. so I can't give you the name of your local dealer, but here is the information you need.
If you have a small engine repair shop nearby they may have one in stock or can order it. If you do not have a good repair shop in your are, go to Amazon.com and search for " 2 cycle primer bulb" to see pictures and figure out the correct one.
Arnold (MTD) has this part number Arnold 490-239-0001
Stens (another big parts distributor) has this part number Primer Bulb WALBRO/188-12-1 If your primer bulb is separate from the carb here is the WALBRO/188-512-1 part.
You can replace the bulb itself. They are tricky to do. I recommend to have a local tv repair shop to do it. If you tighten too much you can damage the replacement bulb. Buy the way a new bulb will run you about $125 or so. It is not a bad fix, compare to buy a new tv set.
I had to replace mine about a year and what we decided to do is to use a small 20" television to watch our reunions or if there is nothing on to save our lamp. Lamp are usually good for about 3 years or 80,000 hours.
I have seen a couple of these. If this has a tilt steering wheel,what happens is the wiring to the turn signal switch pulls out of the hard shell connector,maybe one or two wires.In your case it is the left turn signal circuit.Remove the cover around the column (3 to 4 screws) and inspect the wiring.This might be difficult to do,so you might want to take it to your local repair shop to diagnosis the problem.
We have a PT-50LC14. We replaced the lamp 6 months ago with a TY-LA1000 bulb we bought from a company online (not directly from Panasonic) and it worked for 6 months. Then the TV started turning off on it's own...sometimes it would not come back on for an hour or so. We called the lamp company and we luckily had 1 day left on our 6 month warranty!! They sent us a replacement bulb and the TV would never power on. It would try to power up, but the bulb would never ignite. The power light would flash and then the lamp light would flash every 5 seconds. I had a friend that has the same type of TV and she ordered her bulb directly from Panasonic. I borrowed her lamp and it powered right up. We then called the online company and they sent us yet another replacement bulb, and I tried it today and it works. It seems like these TVs are very particular about the type of bulb used. Next time, we will be ordering ours directly from Panasonic and just paying the extra $100. We have been without our big screen for 2 very long months! I had called a local tv repair shop, called Panasonic directly, and read through countless internet forums, and I thought we were going to have to replace the ballast or get a ballast repair kit and start messing with the circuit board.
You would need the service manual for that adjustment. It is outlined in the service manual on how to adjust the tilt. It is a mechanical adjustment. You can get the service manual emailed to you instantly after purchase at this link. http://servicemanuals.vstore.ca/
1. The problem lies in the vertical deflection voltage-doubler circuit. The usual fault is a single capacitor of 100uF/35V that has failed. It is normally connected to a rectifier diode right at the vertical IC. Replacing the capacitor usually gets it working perfectly again.
or
2. The vertical drive IC has failed.
If you are finicky around technical work, then a reputable local repair shop in your locality should do it quickly for you and charge only labour.
