I left it running for a while, and the original flyback in it started to smoke.. Screen went dead.. I left the room and started to smell a burning smell... These things smell like burning firewood with an odd stench, I thought the house was on fire..

Waited a while and powered back up, and probed the HV and it goes up to 5000kv before falling.. I removed the HV cover and poked around, there's wax drippings and I felt around the donut and felt a bump on the bottom of it.. I heard Shango on Youtube, chisrtv i think on here, is able to fix these, if so, let me know how much you want and I'll mail it to you... I've also got three Thordason flys for CTC15 which I assume will work in this unit.. Still rather have the original repaired if it's repairable..
