can that cause it to have low high voltage ? almost like the voltage supplying the high voltage circuits is low ??

If that cap is part of a resonant circuit (not just a filter) it could affect things.

[Edit - I also am impressed you could rewind parts of the flyback.]

How did you know how many turns of wire for each winding? I suppose one way is to keep count as you undo the old windings.

Coils usually used a criss cross winding pattern, the wires taking a pattern of \ and / as they go round the circumference of the winding. Hard to do by hand. This pattern is to reduce winding to winding capacitance.

You're lucky that the very high voltage winding wasn't atop the other windings.
