Just a week ago having replaced all the caps in my 18, I jammed a wire between a backelite cap and the chassis. Happened to be the B+ wire, but whatever. What matters is, things happen when you disturb stuff.
Go everywhere you disturbed parts, and see if there is a problem.

measure voltages. Voltages tell you tons of info.

Touch some grid caps with a wire, see if you hear that "booooo" sound.
Play with it. God know, maybe you'll get lucky.
