Well, you are not going to be able to fix it without popping it out of the can anyway... likely a microphonic 6U8 (a easy guess because 6U8s are used in the tuner, video IF, audio IF and audio stages.
So:
1. Remove the 2 large thumb-nuts that attach the stand (if your model has one).
2. Pull off the larger knobs.
3. Remove the 3 screws that attach the knob cover.
4. lift out the knob cover.
5. Remove the 2 screws that attach the handle.
6. Remove the screw under the bezel (center front).
7. Place face down on soft mat.
8. Lift the can off.
Five minutes, tops, and you should be able to replace any of the tubes without further disassembly (other than a few cardboard pieces that are tucked under the side rail screws and perhaps the speaker)
