Thats why I like my cap tester, great for checking those caps, shows up weak ones vert quickly.
Interesing note on cap testers, this got me once so now I always remember to disconnect the video feed from the dvd player to the TV. I have no idea why but if you leave it connected, sometimes a cap will read weak (fuzzy eye opening) if one leg was lifted for the test (so one leg is still in the circuit).
There is a .1 1kv white tube cap that test ok but I can't test over 450v so I may just replace it anyway.
Not looking forward to pulling the chassis, it looks like its going to be a pita, lots of tied off wire cables. This seems to be a low end zenith based on all the missing (unused) adj pots on the back of the chassis, and the cheapie IF tubes (6BZ6 on the 1st 2).
