Sorry, I wrote that real straight. I usually do that because  
sometimes it's the simplest thing right in front of our faces.  If  
the return springs are tight, then it's time to look to lubrication  
and alignment of the shafts and related parts. Sometimes the geometry  
of the levers on the shafts can make a stiff spot if they aren't in  
the right orientation. You want the arms as perpendicular to the  
range of motion as you can make 'em (if that makes sense...)
