if you don't have the scope or tv analyst, the 1st place to go is a sub of the vert out tube and if used a vertical osc, IIRC Zeniths used two tubes for vert sweep (unlike the multivibrator dual triodes used in RCA).
I would test by subbing tubes.
after that you would want to check the voltage from the height pot. Assuming it uses boost voltage in the osc circuit, there is often a high meg resistor in series with a height pot. check to see if the pot and or resistor has drifted high.
The other likely suspect would be any eletrolytic that is a cathode bypass of the vert out. If that cap opens it kills the gain and output of the tube.
If you have a scope the 1st thing to look at would be the PP at the grid of the vert out, this would quickly narrow down to either the drive signal (vert osc tube) or the output (vert out tube). from there you can focus more closely on where to look.
