I took a good look at mine tonight, and as much as I hate to say it; I believe Zeno is right. That is probably a horizontal hold coil. Mine is yellow plastic and much shorter. Also, the winding conductor on mine looks substantially thicker.

Thanks a ton for the effort and the offer. Mine is definitely toast though. Originally I thought that just the mount or outer shaft might be compromised, but suspicions have always led me to wonder if the actual winding was still tight, or had it loosened up. It is definitely loose or springy and that would certainly not be good in operation.

So, I will find one of those, grab a few caps, and try out that color crystal that was given to me to get the color back and I should be good to go. I may just do the non polarized caps for starters. If all works well, it will be all cosmetics afterward. I would like to find a really nice control door and a better (nice) channel selector if anyone has extras.
