I'm currently working on a 20 EZ as part of a tube swap. The B+ is at 140 volts and unadjustable. Chassis has a new flyback, b+ pot, 1090, vr and hot. Where to look next?

What? Getting bad new stock? I've tried every part I got. I've bought 2 new hots and 2 new 1090's. Twice I've hooked up hot (properly) with the insulators and sleeves and had them short on the lower screw and blow the 4 amp fuse. That makes me wonder if their not bad now also. I swapped in a different hot and now the B+ is over 140v (was 125v) and not adjustable. That 5112 was $8 ($15 after shipping) from Twisty...if it's the problem, I don't see any point in buying another only to have that be bad too! Would be ok if I could test it to be sure? Can anyone say......UNCLE?my bet it is IC 601.
that is the same problem i have had in the past.
Peace
