First make sure you put the right PCU in as the 250 takes a different PCU than its sister machine the 200 (Gestetner 3220). It should be a Type 251 PCU. Also, these old machines were prone to losing their drum ground at the drop of a hat. Try putting some conductive grease on the drum shaft from the back of the machine.
As old as that box is, it may be a better option to try and upgrade. Parts are pretty much extinct at this point...
