I originally got that set from John Horvath (jshorvath65) about 2 years ago, maybe 3? Anyway, there originally was a metal grille beneath the set and was removed and never put back. A window screen was stapled underneath to takes its place by someone else, but you will need to pull that screen off and you will see 2 large blue capacitors. Theres nothing else like it in there, they will jump out at you, they are about 1"diameter by 3" long. When you get the new caps, just jump the leads over each cap while the set is on and see what happens to the pic. Be very careful as the wrong move will give you a nice 400volt blast of energy which will throw your hand back faster than you could ever immagine! A 400 volt B+ zap is much worse than a 25KV zap! After you jump the new cap, short the leads of the new cap together using the shaft of a screwdriver, or some other metalic object that will allow both cap leads to touch at the same time (fork, etc) to drain the voltage of the cap. You will see a blue spark and a loud snap sound. This indicates that the cap voltage is drained, however you should do that about 2 or 3 times as you will not totally drain the cap in one shot. Do this after everytime you jump the cap over one of the caps in the set.

Since the set will be on its top (so you can work beneath it) you will notice the purity will look very bad, this is no concern and will be back to normal once the set is back in its normal position again. You wont need to play with convergence or anything like that.
