Alternative Way of Adjusting G2s (25EC58)

After cleaning the setup switch I am now able to get a line on the screen for blue with 3/4 turn, but not for red or green. If I go back to normal mode with an image in B/W (color turned down and brightness half way) I can see each color as I turn the controls. Color starts appearing after about 1/4 turn. I adjusted until I got a decent grey scale image. From there I adjusted the taps to remove the slight red in the light areas.

While this has produced a good image and color, I don't think it's the best for the tube if I don't have them set right. I'm wondering if there is a better way? Voltage level?

I'm not sure why the other two G2s can't produce a line. When I last checked the tube it tested good. Should I test it again as it's been 12 years.
