Got three of them myself, well one is a 6T65 but all use a KCS-47 chaiss. To
remove the crt remove chaiss then the yoke assembly which is bolted to the cabinet. CAREFULLY pull on the neck of the crt with one hand and with the other support the bell. The crt should pull out with ease. You might as well after you get the crt out take out the screws that hold the plastic bezel to the cabinet once that is out the safety glass can be removed from the inside. Clean all those pieces well if not it can cause HV arcing.
As for your crt just for laughs try putting 6v on the filament and see if the it stays lit or in burns out (a sign of air in the tube).I don't think there is a sub for the 16GP4 but it is a common roundie tube. Used alot in 16"sets compared to 16" glass tubes.
The set wil make a good picture and great sound when working properly
Good luck
Terry
