It means you've got at least 10-12 KV of
unrectified pulse going to the 1B3, which is good. And there should be 12 KV or more of rectified DC coming out of the 1B3, which isn't happening for some reason.
After a few minutes running, is the 1B3 hot to the touch, like uncomfortably hot? If so, there's gotta be a leakage path to ground that's not showing up with the ohmmeter check.
Try removing the doorknob cap so the socket floats free and see what happens.
