Both vert and horiz? Odd. I'm assuming it's been completely recapped and resistors are close in value.
Tubes would be my first suspicion followed by carbonized tube sockets then osc coils.
Have you scoped them to confirm the oscillators are not running?
This could also be thermal. You can try preheating the chassis with a heat gun and see if it starts reliably. If so, you may be able to pin it down with heat and freeze spray.
