The only thing I ever attempted was to pop the sealed top off to check (and clean) the contacts, hoping it would cure my uneven acceleration (didn't work). I've also experienced broken pin/vane as a result of backfiring, which required replacement. BTW, I've never been offered a new one from our local parts purveyors - only Bosch rebuilds (about $100.)
