Some pics of the old capacitors, as you can see they are pretty much junk, these are paper wax capacitors, which aren't reliable, so they must go.

You can one there that's blown out and spilled some kind of black gunk over it, it connects on one side of the selenium rectifier.

I don't have a capacitor checker, so cant test them to know which is good, but
these old ones you cant test with multi-meter, only for a dead short on it ...

Okay I recapped most of the chassis of the TV now and am closer to the power up.But I see some things that could be a problem. As you an see form pics,the fly-back has some cracks on it. Looked thru one of the cracks and see another layer inside of it, where the winding's are located, there not exposed, only the white coating over it seems to have cracks on it, and this is actually quite common to have some cracks in the donad.

I resistance checked the HV winding of the flyback and get about 150 ohms so its not open, the sams don't say how much it should be so dont know ...

Do I need to fill up those cracks before power up or aynthing,and if so what materials to use and such ?

Is there anything else I should check/look for before power up test ??
