Well, I found a resistor that had gone low, and replacing that one bumped the voltage up to about 60 volts. But just then, the width coil flashed over and caused the flaming 5U4 effect again.
So....completely disassembled the width coil this time. It is toast. The coil is in two sections, with a center tap, I believe, and one section is just destroyed. This may have been what took this set out of service so long ago, as I found a few other attempts at trying to shore up this coil before I used that cocktail straw.
I'll try to give more details later, but now I have to see if I have anything close to this coil on my parts sets...
