Looking for documentation for VAX-11/730 ENKCC Diagnostic

Hi all --
The VAX-11/730 we have running here at the museum has developed a fault
that occurs only sporadically, usually days apart. Running the complete
diagnostic suite for the better part of a week reveals this:
SECT TST ERR EXP REC OTHER MSK MODULE
ENKCC 33 08 000000FF 000000DF N/A FFFFFF00 M8391 M8728
Re-running only ENKCC, this error is repeatable (though it still takes a
couple of days for it to occur). It helpfully points out the MCT (M8391)
and memory boards (M8728) as possible causes; we have spare M8728s and I've
swapped them around with no change in behavior. I have a spare M8391 in my
own collection but it fails in a completely different way so that's not
much help.
I cannot find any real documentation for ENKCC so I don't know what TEST 33
is doing, nor what ERROR 8 indicates in this context, though it seems we're
dropping a bit somewhere :). Anyone out there sitting on a pile of 11/730
documentation?
Thanks as always!
