Replacing the fuse with an ammeter I read 120mA.
Hmmm less than I expected, but difficult to say if this could be the problem. I once more checked an original 151-0140-00 and an "arbitrary" 2N3055 (date 1973). Low currents DC gain was 100 for the first one and 150 for the second one.
Is it easy to replace Q1418 with another 2N3055?
A lot has been written here about differences between 2N3055s and it seems not too obvious what were the selection criteria.
