What, you can'nt find the dial on the back? :D

I would leave it unless its giving you some kind of trouble. You have checked the basics and they test good. Next step would be to hook it up to a silly-scope and check the wave pattern.

The one you can get parts for! Brushes, bearings, regulator...

I had to import my regulator (AL82X).
