Have you cleaned those adjustable caps? There might be enough crud to short them out, or the mica may be split or "diseased" I usually open 'em up all the way, and spray de-oxit, wait a few hours until the solvent dries and then retune. You might have to take the can off the transformer to do a thorough cleaning job.
