A fair warning. I would replace that 400 volt paper cap on the yoke with a 1KV mylar cap. They had a big tendency to short, and, explode.
Paper was bad enough. 400 volt make matters worse.
I remember when the one on my mother's GE blew. It spille it's gutts on the circuit board, and, blew the house fuse.
That cap went with quite a BANG!
