Candohm replacement
#9

Your cap wiring is fine. You should check your B+ at a few other spots:

1) Cathode of the 35Z3
2) input side of the field coil
3) output side of the field coil.

Is your dial lamp working? If not, check that and the resistor (40 ohm) in parallel with it that goes to the plate of the 35Z3. Check for ~120VAC on the plate of the 35Z3.

Make sure you have connected your common B- to the proper point. This will have a floating chassis, so no DC between the chassis and B+ line.
