^^^ I am willing to do this, how does it work better? With an electronic, start with a 13 or 15. As the weight moves out, more spring force acts against the outward motion of the weight. This slows the advance, gaining a degree or two in the top end or at least offsetting retard from slew rate. Red arrow is force of the spring acting on the weight. White arrow is acceleration force of the weight on the spring.

I use a pair of thin needle nose pliers to spread the vertical legs apart (3 or 4 tries) then when it is expanded as much as it can I grab on one of the legs & whip it around to the open side & up all in one motion. it distorts the clip a bit but they are very non brittle (I forget what the word is for the opposite quality) & will easily withstand this. sometime in the future I'd like to thread the shaft for another type of holddown.
