Now that the oscillator is running at the correct frequency, do what I did:

grab a pair of plastic diddle sticks, put one in each core of the quad x-former. Put a mirror in front of the set, so you can see the screen while you twist the diddle sticks. Tweak both cores with a color bar pattern on the screen till you see the correct bars, and make sure the tint control is centered when you do it otherwise you'll end up with not a lot of range when you're done. If you're able to get good bars I'd call it a day, if it looses lock during the procedure zero beat the oscillator again and repeat- remember that the phase detector and local oscillator are linked together, so a change in one affects the other.
