You're off to a great start.
When you get the new springs disassemble the advance and soak the parts overnight in vinegar or lime away to get rid of all the corrosion. Clean out the distributor too, especially where the weighs touch it.
The flyweights need to move friction free as possible for the best advance performance.
Put "check the advance" your list of yearly maintenance duties.
