Predicta Advice Needed

[Philcofan42]

I'm sure my 21" Holliday needs the usual total chassis rebuild, but I'm wondering about something. Right now it does almost nothing when turned on. The vacuum tubes glow, but that's about it. I've read a couple of articles about repairing these (one of them by a member of this forum) and they both mention the 7watt 5.6ohm fusistor. I'm wondering if it will be worth it to replace it with a 6ohm resistor to see if the set will do anything more. I want to find out about the flyback transformer and the picture tube before I decide about having the chassis rebuilt. Will replacing that fusistor possibly get the high voltage going again? I brought the voltage on the set up slowly over several hours in an attempt to reform the old e.caps for whatever that's worth. Any advice or help on this would be great.
