Always good to get the dust out.

If it has arced before, it may have developed a carbon track someplace that keeps it arcing. Investigate the crunchy looking wire for sure.

It may be arcing in more than one place.

Arcing somewhere on the CRT could be a bad / dirty ground contact, which may be the purpose of that spring.
