I decided to look inside and I found that awful circuit board glue that had turned black. So I spent a while scrapping and sanding of what I could. That 4.7mfd cap you mentioned had an esr of .5 ohms I would have replaced it with a new one but the highest voltage I have on hand is 200v. Since I didn't have one I decided to put the cap back in as it didn't test bad.
The line is not that easy to see but maybe this picture will so it on the right side of screen. There may not be anything wrong with the set except for horizontal size being to small letting you see things that are ment to be over scanned. Since I have not tracked down a pattern generator yet I'm not going to mess with adjustments as the set also needs the gray scale adjusted. I do have one small question about gray scale. So you adjust the drive or bias/cute off controls.
I like how they put an extra circuit board and transformer just so they could make a soft touch volume control and power instead of simple pot with switch. As this set is none remote
