Magnavox/Sylvania/Philips--4 legged cap would go open, causing the HV to go to 50-60 kV. Usually arced right through the CRT neck into the yoke windings, neatly cutting the neck off the tube.
I had that happen to an 80 Magnavox about 2 yrs after the crt and tuner were replaced that thing was a pita .
