I went ahead and did as you said Mike went with pins 3&4. It does sound better but still has some distortion.
I let it play for about 2 hours and all seems okay as for as anything getting hot. Transformer was just medium warm to touch.
I think I'm going to leave it alone and finish the cabinet, getting close to putting the grill cloth in and reinstall the chassis & speaker.
This was the ugly painted green cabinet that I have been working on.
Thanks for your advice.
