K20d infinity focus

Is there a possibility to adjust the camera infinity focus? My K20d has been a bit problematic as it needs the focus to be set over the infinity in order the image to be in focus (see pic. 2). With AF lenses it is usually manageable but like the M40/2.8 in the image really can't focus to infinity in this body. What could be the cause and can it be adjusted?

Best (easiest) fix for istDs* power-on issue?

I have this old companion that I purchased originally to support K10d in high-iso and manual focus lens usage (split screen installed). What is the easiest way to get the body to power on more reliably? I think the supercapacitor/cell helping the power-on is no more with us and the body can only be started by starting it multiple times with fresh quality batteries. What can one do? Don't really want to disassemble the thing. Could a cap be soldered within the battery compartment?
