It'd be nice if I
had a schematic. But you know, no model number. I guess I can fire it up again and see if they're red-plating, but I doubt it. But in terms of temperature, all three were too hot to touch. Like, I'd have blisters if I kept my finger on them.

lol, well... to be honest, the only TV I've
really gotten into is a 90s Sony Trinitron. And that thing is built like a Swiss watch made out of plastic and PCBs.

It will often make a loud high pitched sound. It can overheat the 33GY7 also.

Nice call that is an 8LT8.
On the horizontal osc. coil, the slug is there, and it turns easily with an allen wrench. It doesn't appear to be too far in or out. I'm pretty sure the extension shaft thing just broke off at some point. But I didn't even think of messing with its adjustment while the set is running. I'll try that later, I have the whole set apart so I could scrub off the rat piss.
Horizontal hold thingy.
