[TCML] Suspect component

["Reverend Fuzzy" <pastor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've got a small high voltage power supply project, which
if I can get it working right, I will use to power a
Tesla Coil, someday.  Thing is, when I attempt to draw an
arc from the voltage doubler, it's a little weak as
opposed to drawing an arc right from the transformer.

I suspect that the capacitor (internal diode and bleeder) may be
going bad.  Going by the "drawn arc" symptoms, does anyone else
suspect the same thing?
