electrolitics grunow 589
#4

One of your electrolytics negative side does not go to chassis ground. The terminal strip should connect this negative lead to the HV center tap, the field coil, and R13, which is a 560K resistor. If it is the positive lead, it should connect it to the filament of your rectifier, G2 of your output tube and to the primary side of your output transformer. (Also other places but this gives you an idea....)

Since you only have two electrolytics present and the schematic only lists two of them, willing to bet one is positive and the other is negative lead of cap.

Have you examined the body of the cap to see if it lists what the leads are?
