If i keep turning it on after turning it off it will eventually stay on for good until its turned off for a few hours.

Doing a bit of research, it seems like it is some protection circut that is triggering the television to turn off due to a bad connection.

Does anyone have an idea of exactly why this would be happening. Would it be an easy fix? The one thing i have always been nervous about working on is CRT televisions becasue if you do something worng you could send thousands of volts threw your body.

Here is a link to what the television looks like.

Could be a bad jungle IC caused by a shorted CRT. The last time it ran did it have a purple or green hue to all of the colors?
