may be a good idea to measure the capacitance, before installation

They do look similar, but these are disc capacitors. There are no thermistors in this set. They are more common in later sets, especially in the automatic degaussing circuit of a color TV.

I was fortunate enough to receive a copy of the original factory service manual from bgadow before I even found this set.
