Check volume control on the 118, clean with contact cleaner if needed.

The caps you didn't replace are #52? If so, I would replace them with 110pF caps. Do not vary as they are part of the 2d detector circuitry.

Also verify the 2d detector tube is good, especially for leakage. The 6J5 sometimes will have excessive leakage from K to heater.
