Check all capacitors in HT circuit for electrical leakage, all resistors for true measured value against ratings.

Are you sure ? Because on youtube the guy has changed his scope tube on his 18. And the result is the same of mine !
 
That's lack of stereo separation vs a tube or circuit issue. Try adjusting separation , should be listed in the SM.

This is in FM? Cause if it's aux or phono there is very little that can be adjusted on the scope tube, it's the way they are.
 
Looks like some voltages around the tube are off. There should be intensity and focus controls somewhere. See if they have any affect.
Also be sure that a mono/stereo selector hasn't been unintentionally toggled.
