follow up, it does not kill the color any more (or even reduce it) when adj the tint now, BUT I was wrong about it working fine, it still lacks good range, the tint shift is slightly green to normal, but never over shoot to purple.

I tried subbing a new phase detector (6AL5) and chroma ref osc control/chroma osc (6GH8). no change. the set calls for a 6EA8 but it had a 6GH8, although I doubt that could be the problem. I did try a few other 6GH8's no change.

Its not like the range is just too green as the green shift is not that much either. I really am not motivate to pull the chassis so will prob just get some new 6EA8's to be sure its not a tube problem. Even checking the tint pot would require pulling the whole chassis.
