My first major overhaul

Greetings all

Im new here and also apreciate old B/W tv sets, been tinkering with em since the 6th grade. Got out of it for awhile, but am back to it.

Recently, i scored a Packard Bell 2116 DeLuxe (2115-2 chassis) Iknow i need to do a total Cap job on it. UNFORTUNATELY, the owner didnt know that and PLUGGED IT IN... Needless to say , he smoked the transformer (stamped 89041) Looks like a 13 wire one, (primaries included in count)

Fortunately, i kept a BIG box of tubes so thats covered, only wish i wasnt forced out of the garage or ide still have my old tv parts around...

Ide apreciate any help (parts, spec books, advice, etc.) you can give me
check your piles
Thanks
Steve
