I replaced all the bad peaking coils and then compared all of the wiring and component values against the schematics. Then I installed the F104 300mA fuse ... and ... another carbon tracked part let out some smoke. Here is a picture of the burst amp transformer with a carbon track. I used a dremel tool to remove the carbon and trim that area away from the case and re-installed it.

I then turned my attention to the HV cage that needed to be completely rebuilt. I decided to remove it from the chassis to try to clean out the goo left from the original doorknob cap meltdown. Here is a picture of the mostly empty cage. I noticed my flyback had an opening right under it, but the cage did not. So I added an opening for better cooling. Then decided to add a fan. Here is a picture after the cage cutout. Here is a picture of the rebuilt cage with all new HV doorknobs. And picture from the bottom of the rebuilt chassis.
