Ditto on what Zeno says - classic shorted yoke, horizontal winding or one or both vertical windings. We used to see this quite often here in southeast Virginia - humidity in the summer would kill yokes. Our countermeasure was a good coat of Humiseal (kinda like spray polyurethane, but with acetate as the sealing agent). Lemme see if I have a yoke - KCS160 was a popular chassis, so finding one should be easy.
