I really do not know what went wrong with your first 1010p, but as you can see, a recap and trace repair is what usually fixes these sets. I know that you got good results with only changing the 4 leaky caps, but all the other caps are of the same quality - and with continued use of the TV, they will also fail - they should be replaced with high reliability caps.
If you plan on getting more involved in repairing electronics, you should buy an ESR meter - a decent 1 will cost about $100, but it is well worth it - it will save you a lot of time and aggravation and guess work when it comes to dealing with electrolytic caps.
Either way, GOOD JOB!
