Working in stages is good advice. I begin with the electrolytics in the power supply, since all else depends on them.
In addition to the electrolytics, there is one non-electrolytic that should always be replaced routinely before power-up. That's the coupling cap going to the grid (G1) of the Hor.output tube. Any leakage in this cap will cause the tube and flyback system to pull excessive current.
G1 will be pin 5 (assuming the tube is 6BQ6 or 'DQ6).
