Dallas' note below.. He makes a great point, if it isn't broken, don't .....
About resistors, just check the resistances from the tube pins to ground
(most manuals have a chart). I usually find at least one with a problem to
correct. Otherwise, no wholesale replacements. (I confine recapping to
electrolytics and black beauties.)

Sure. Let me prerface my remarks by saying that much of what is said about
preventive maintenance on the reflector is baloney.
Take, for example, the "resistor replacers." You can't measure most
resistors accurately in circuit unless you "lift at least one end," and if you do
that, you might as well go ahead and replace it.
