Perhaps the placement of the wires affects the tilt - so image is tilted - or rotated? If it's rotated then you usually need to twist the yoke, don't know if there's an adjustment for that.
High pitch sound could be the capacitors, if you really want to extend life to the max you should swap all the electrolytic caps as well.
Screen should be measureable, if it's set too high the x-ray protection shuts it down. See if you can find the service manual there's usually complete setup instructions anda bunch of measurments you can do if you have the needed tools/apparatus.
I'd just set all knobs to centered (brightness and contrast), start something familiar on screen (C64 startup image) and then set "Screen" as low as possible and focus with the sharpest image - nail polish might lock the adjustment screws enough. But let it run for a while before you make adjustments, needs to warm up.
If "Screen" is set to high you'll start seeing other lines that aren't supposed to be visible.
