Replacing a transformer

[Schanz]

Could be that you need to replace all the caps first. I don't know that the smaller down stream caps can heat your transformer like that but I'm no expert by any means.

I put mine all together last night finally but when I turned it on I heard a small electrical arc. Uh oh. I found one my 22uf electrolytic caps had come loose from the ground. Repaired the solder but now the sound is gone. Replaced that cap but that didn't fix it. Voltages at the rectifier are fine. All tubes light up but my b+ voltage is missing farther down the circuit if that makes sense. Haven't had time to investigate much yet. Frustrating.
