IF Tuning Coils
 

I have a receiver with some ferrite tuning coils in the IF. In the
process of retuning, attempting to peak the IF, I cracked coils in two
cans and they are locked into place. They are in same position from
original and the receiver seems fine, makes sensitivity etc. Is there
any measurable change to the inductor Q or other parameter when this
occurs? I did get replacements but the effort to replace seems difficult.
