It's too gummed up or something for the springs to be able to pull it back. I tried spraying the weights and springs with a little liquid wrench and it helps some it now returns about half way but still sticks. I am now considering replacing the distributor with the one that came off the old engine, I already checked it out under the cap and everything seems to function perfectly and looks good.
