You will need a good solder sucker, some of the eyelets in the PCB board
don't like releasing the FBT pins. Any decent monitor repair business should
know of a source, I've only ordered in Europe. Through discussions with
techs abroad in the USA I know one source is:

In my case I haven't had to replace any additional components. It is always
prudent to check any other components that could be stressed. When ever a
flyback fails there is always the possibility of components in the B+
regulator feed circuitry failing, the reference you quoted points to that
area. If it helps I can email you the schematic so you can check that area,
let me know if it will help.
