I had a 84 that had a similar problem. Couldn't get a sharp peak when adj the IF. I ended up removing the IF coils from the can and gave good looking over but didn't find anything that was a problem. While I had it apart I change out the grid leak resistor and resolder all or the internal connections. Worked fine after that. A good alignment is key for good performance on these sets!
