There's an easier way to get those wires back into the cap. Stop me if you already know this trick. Attach (solder) a long very fine gagewire to the end of each of the CRT leads so the neck looks like Madusa. Clear the cap of any solder and feed the fine wires throught the cap holes pulling each one until the cap fits snub on the CRT. Resolder.
I watched Tom Albrecht do this and the CRT worked great afterwards. I tried it myself once and although the technique worked I over heated one of the leads during the soldering process. The CRT went to air. by by..
