Even if it works great, I would pull the board and resolder the 4 connections (top and bottom) of the horizontal driver transformer. They were notorious for developing cold solder joints which can cause the horizontal output transistor to short out. It's been years since I worked on one of those, but I believe the X series still used the transformer that was troublesome. It's easy to recognize as it is built on a square plastic form with a metal pin in each corner (windings solder to the top of the pin and the bottom of the pin solders under the PCB).

I'll definitely give it a look. Hopefully this is one of the lucky ones that doesn't have that problem.
