In trying diagnose a sporadic (ignition?) problem I found the return
springs on the centrifugal advance weights to be pathetic.  Since they
are not identical I assume at least one is incorrect, in any case, both
seemed to have little effect.

Am I correct in recalling that the rotor should snap back smartly when
you move it by hand to the advanced position then release it?

In addition to renewing the springs, should the various places where
they mount & rub the action plate be lightly lubricated?  TIA.
