There are a multitude of things that can cause repeat HOT failure. What is
the B+ running at? I would replace the following components for starters (I
see that you have already replaced C4401 and C4402):

C4102
C4104
C4108
C4145
CR4118
CR4401
CR4402
Q4302

Then check the following:

C4112
C4311
R4114
Also remember you may have a bad flyback.
