If you can't fix the e-unit, I am of the school of replacing it with an electronic one from a place like Dallee, I kind of like the old e unit as a rube goldberg special, but a solid state one is so much more reliable
Rube Goldberg...that says it all! Gotta hand it to those electro-mechanical engineers back then!
