Got burned a bit by ordering parts based on the parts list rather than observing the actual chassis. Zenith listed some of these sand coated power resistors as only 2 or 3 watts and I got undersized parts. Just ordered up some 7 watters.
Also, the white cap is a 0.47uF in series with the horizontal yoke windings. I used a Mallory M150 polyester film cap for now but ordered up a more robust polypropylene cap rated for pulse applications.

Leason learned, review the chassis before ordering parts!
