Try pulling and reseating the counter chip. Check for loose connections to and from the counter board.

Also, I've had trouble with one or more of the electrolytic caps in the counter circuit. There is one cap in particular that causes this kind of trouble. Due to the age on this rig, I'd simply change the two or three that are involved.
