Pilot lamp is ok- it was was not making good connection in socket.
Removed volume Control, pried off the cover, and cleaned inside with 99.9% alcohol. It works much better! I think it will be ok.
Question- Now what to lubricate with? I have some silicone dialectic compound. I used light machine oil for the shaft bushing.
Bakelite capacitor-this is going to be easy! tar came out with a little heat- but check old soldering job on the one tab. And, there's more joints like that- not sure that's even solder!
