General Electric 19PF6756

One of our neighbors put a GE 19PF6756 out on the curb with the free sign so I picked it up because it looks like it was made in the USA in Portsmouth Virginia. The CRT seems good for being around 29 years old.

There are lines going from top to bottom on the left side and people and objects have halos around them. I’m sure replacing almost all the electrolytic capacitors can improve the picture a lot, but I am worried about the flyback.

The flyback makes a lot of little popping noises when I turn on the TV but after letting it run for around a half an hour to an hour the noise seems to disappear.
See and hear video:

Are there any capacitors I should replace before using the TV anymore? Is my hearing too good with worrying about the flyback?
