Could be the tube!

This is what usually fails.

Icx3431 Str53041 , C3432 100/25, Q3431 121-1264 .

Check the resistors in that same circuit also...

Put a 1 or 1.5 amp fuse in it for testing...if the CRT shorts , it will blow
the fuse before it smokes your STR53041

Tap on the neck of the tube to see if she'll act up.

went all yellow and then went dead and can smell something burning. I think
it's the tube, but don't work on many Zenith's. I heard the CRT's are bad in
Zenith's. Any thoughts. Thanks
