Thanks, maybe I'll try inching off the cover when I get back to the shop. I don't want to pull the CRT off the cabinet, and there's not much room to fit a pliers in that space. Sounds like removing the spring would just end in tears.
It's weird to have a piece of junk between the cover and picture tube. The tube is very bright, so perhaps it was replaced and the "thing" got in there at that time. Looks like a bit of paper or straw.
The linearity & centering are only a little bit off. I'll see what some bending does. If the answer is "nothing," I can live with it. You only notice it when there's something like film credits that fill most of the screen.
