There is information out there somewhere on repairing/adjusting them, though I haven't a clue where you would find it now, I saw some service type sheets years ago, the best thing would be to replace it with a modern electronic one, I use a DVR2 from Dynamoregulators.

Several people have advised me to buy one of those. I suppose I am being perverse in trying to get the Lucas CVC working.
I hear that the contacts can get corroded, so it's a good idea to clean them with some emery paper, then run the engine up.
I can't think why Norton put the CVC under the petrol tank, so you have to take the tank off to access it, but need the tank on to test it.

I use a Dynamoregulators unit with a Fiat car dynamo. After blowing up a bunch of other units I can't fault this one. Cheers, Stu.
