I even tried a different CRT but it made no difference, does anyone know how I could fix this??
All help is appreciated. Thanks again

I know you said you tried all the tubes, and with that I'm assuming you replaced the HV rectifier in the cage?
I change hundres of those over the years for blooming - it's the number one cause of HV drop when beam current goes up. Try another rectifier.
Does the flyback get hot? A resistance check won't pick up a single shorted turn.
If not, providing the boost voltage as requested will give the group more to go on.
