General gist is that the set seems to be developing issues, and I'd like to turn it into a daily driver. I also got to get it apart sometime to give the flyback some attention. Last time I took a peak at it, it looked like all the black coating fell off and was laying in a pile of chipped off pieces. (Mabey the reason it sounds like a burning cigarette with the back off)
I've got more I could add but I'm out of time

Sounds to me as if the CRT is shot. The black coating flaking off the bell of the tube (the aquadag) acts as a huge capacitor in the high voltage system. Without it, the CRT cannot get 2nd anode voltage, which will of course kill the raster.
I'm not sure where the sound you're hearing is coming from, but it seems to me that the missing aquadag on the bell of the CRT may have a lot to do with it. In any event, the tube is now little more than a glass jug and must be replaced.
