I gather you are talking about a 4X150A tube. Datasheet link is below.

You can run up to 2KV on the plate. What voltage are you running now?
Does your amp have voltage/current meter in it. Can you tell me what they read?

is your power supply internal or external? different place, different answers. one is easier to remedy than the other.
