So my opinion it is a cold soldering, you must tesolder the pins that are coming out of high voltage transformer i think the 6.3 line fades, coil...
Then replace some capacitators, that are feeding DC DC convertor in first stage power supply, next thing adjust focus for better image.... by the way resolder the connecting panel with the kinescope too...

Bad idea.
Working on several kilovolt transformers and big nasty rail capacitors is VERY dangerous if you don't know what you're doing, and it's suicide if you don't discharge the tube first. Even if you don't electrocute yourself, there's always the real possibility of breaking the tube, which will send glass flying everywhere.
Just buy a new monitor. You can buy nice used 19" CRTs for under $100 easily, and basic 17" LCDs aren't much above $200 anymore, and you'll really appreciate being able to run at higher resolutions and refresh rates. ^^
Jam it back in, in the dark.
