If this is the one I'm thinking of, there are 3 or 4 white caps with the black ring on one side in the vertical circuit. They go leaky. Have you tried cleaning the tuner. How does it act when you try to switch in the middle of channels? Have access to a VOM that can test capacitance? Could be some out of tolerance caps on the IF too I suppose.

I always do the wiggle test when in question wiggle the tubes around the IF section to see if you get any change while the TV is on usually wear gloves or use a wooden stick to perform this.

Unfortunately I dont have a Sam's on that one.
