The schematic demands a 4K3 and you've been substituting a 1/4W that's borderline at the voltage you're running. These Jaycar metal film resistors hit the exact value, sit in the same footprint as your standard 1/4W carbon film, and carry double the wattage so the joint stays cool through long test cycles. Eight in the pack means you've got spares for the next iteration without a second run to the shelf. Solder, test, ship it
