Default Top Lever problem

I just bought an O frame 16 GH. Pretty nice little gun, found a perfect GH stock in my stash that actually fits the gun to a " T ". Still has the dogs head plate. The gun however when opened has a top lever that flops around some and will come back close to the top tang screw area. It's not the top lever spring that's weak, it's actually quite strong. The problem is that once the trip engages the bolt and the gun is held open the lever tends to wiggle a bit, much more so than usual. What dictates the tightness in the lever?
By the way, I have this gun completely apart, every moving part in the gun and I must say it's an ingenious design and quite simple. Parts are very well made and fit quite nicely. I need to get this lever to stop flopping around however whent he gun is opened. Once closed, she's as tight as can be. Any ideas? Thanks much, Jerry
Congrats on your win Parker guys/gal. Jerry
