Looks like the closest club is 80 miles away, maybe I should just buty another 84/6Z4 to be safe, will replace the suspect capacitor/filter.

Is it difficult to replace the transformer with multiple wires, are they color coded well? If I am reading the schematic correctly, there are 2 white wires from the input/switch, then there is 1 black to the Rect 84 and 1 black to the 84 & filiments, then a green to the 84. a green and a green yellow going to an item marked 61. Willhave to study this closely and try to determine the original coil wire colors, they are faded.

Thanks for your help, I'm sure I will be asking more questions.
