My best guess is that no good deed goes unpunished. When you saw the opportunity to replace an out of tolerance resistor you did. But you did with a 1/2 w model when it needs a 2w or so. It ate it for lunch...
As for the 900v not sure what's going on short of have the meter set on ac volts and you are reading the ac spikes across the pri of the output transformer.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
