I eventually solved the case, but I had to call the guy and tell him that I was sorry but his machine is so much of an atypical case that it needs to be given extra attention at later time and it had no chance to be ready as scheduled. We became good friends for years when I eventually repaired his machine and told him the full story. isn't the 8520 a 6526A (or B?) but made with a different process? I could use the 8520 in place of the 6526 with no problems once. Also the 85-- version of the 6510 works fine in place of the original (and vice-versa that I could tell).
