yup could be H eff coil if not checked it could be standing at 250ma right now and that would be a real cooker for the fly. and i noticed that whenever a hot tube is swapped the ma changes a bit and should be checked whenever anything is done in and around the horiz section. i have a 66 silvertone that i recapped and played flawless only problem was it would drip wax and the fly would get really hot and still played fine with the eff coil at 190ma so having a nos fly i replaced it and it never got hot again. it was only a matter of time that the fly was going to take a dump. it seemed to me that the secondary, the donut, was shorted somewhere enough to heat it up to the point of melting the wax but not affecting the operation of the set. i would check the eff current and associated components around the horiz and if all is good, change the fly, well saying that is easier said then done being these flys are hard to find.
