Philips TV repair kit incorrect?????

I have a philips 32PT6441/37 TV and ordered the repair kit (4835-310-57673) for the Horizontal Driver from Tritronics Inc. The kit includes the transistor (7404), the driver transformer (5402), a resistor (3239) and 3 resistors (3414 depending on the model). The trouble I have with the kit is Resistor 3414. The install note calls for a 8R2 (guess 8.2 ohm) 2 watt resistor however, the kit contains a 1/4 watt. I installed the parts anyway and the tv worked for about a minute and then went out again. This is the second time I repaired this TV. The first time I only replaced the transistor and that was 8 months ago. Does anyone have any suggestions/comments that will help fix this tv? Should the resistor actually be a 2 watt?

Thanks in advance,

Jeff
