this is a good thing to check.
over years of use that point block cinch bolt will stretch the little aluminium block at the pinch point gap. you will tighten the cinch screw down tight and think it is ok BUT it may not be holding the adjustable points contact tight.
if you ever have this issue it is easy to fix. just run a thin hacksaw blade in the cinch gap to make it a bit wider and it will now hold the adjustable point contact tight.
that little block is also prone to crack. if it does then it needs to be changed.
