Arcing blows vert module & DC gets on the vert yoke winding.
Winding heats up & cuts the neck off the CRT
Same thing happend to some Magnavox sets too.
Set looks very strong so should run near new when done.

I don't think the "G" line used the white cap! Some "E's" did!
Going OOT, I ran into a Magnavox that had that capacitor and the replacement was made by the same company, but looked different! American Radionic finally got it right.
