I think this is a pretty good resource for Tek info and help:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/TekScopes/
I joined it a few months ago (it's free) and found some pretty good 
pointers on repairing the sweep triggering of my 466.

Somewhere(!) I have some URLs for places with an amazing amount of Tek 
parts.  Please note that I've not bought anything from any of them - not 
yet anyway.  I've no affiliation with any of them either.  If there is a 
need, I'll be glad to search more diligently to try to find them again.
