This will run much better & last longer.......
First thing I see is the horz hold shaft is missing. It goes in
the coil behind the horz osc tube ( 8LT8 ??).
What will happen is some one will adjust it too far & not be
able to get it back to the right spot. The pix will usually be
narrow, have lines & multiple pictures side by side. It will
often make a loud high pitched sound. It can overheat the
33GY7 also.
Best thing is to get a source on it like an old VCR to see if
thats whats going on first.

The small Admiral sets built toward the end of the run, seemed to be more trouble-prone.
The one with the 8LT8 seemed to be a GE design. The Admiral designed sets were great. Those used the 8FQ7 and a different design, altogether.
