I posted this before but maybe no-one was listening I scored a Mac plus at the local recycling centre. First it didnt power up due to a blown main fuse, I replaced the fused and it powered up to the finder. I powered off then rebooted and BAMMMM!!!!!! the fuse went into orbit. Could it be the main power electrolytic caps?

What you'll need to do is take the power supply board out, remove the plastic/paper cover by pushing the centers out of those black "rivets".
Expose the board's circuitry and look for traces and brown or blackened solder areas. Replacing the power supply board with a known good one is the best answer.
I have a couple spare Mac Plusses who'd gladly give up their good analog boards to allow a brother Mac to live.
