The first thing that needs to be done is to replace the HV tripler. It could possibly be sealed with RTV; but, I've always felt better about instaling a new tripler when the old one arcs. There will be a part number of 212-xxx on the side of your old tripler. There's a good chance that this will cross reference to an NTE or ECG number. I have seen these triplers short and take the flyback transformer and horizontal output transistor with it; so, use caution.
Next, I would clean and resolder all of the module contacts where they plug into the chassis. Bad module connections was another issue with these sets.
You'll have a fine performer when you get the bugs worked out. BTW, the CRT's in these sets almost never die!
