It seems that the inductance of your replacement oscillator coil is too high, as you are receiving stations higher on the dial ( less capacitance ) than normal. In his case you would need less turns on the tuning secondary winding.
With less turns and less inductance, more tuning capacitance will be needed, so the tuning cap will be more meshed for a given receive freq and the stations will tune lower on the dial.
