A good ways back I bought door knobs for my CT100 21ct55 TM21 and CTC4.... think it cost me like 400 simolians. I'm pretty much set now.

The other day when I tested with a bulb I had all leads unhooked from that socket and just hooked up the bulb alone (it lit, with a little bit of "gassy" glow visible). Tonight I stuck the leads of the light in the socket (with tube removed) and it glowed purplish as HV came up, then went dark. Its filament never lit. What does it mean? As Pee Wee Herman once said, "I don't know!"

If it is not lighting in socket that points to socket problems.
