Just a side note, CVs are from the devil.
Darn diaphrams are a pain.
Be careful not to damage one or cause an air leak with the pressure tap.
If one goes out the slide drops immediately leaning out that cly and burning a hole in the piston.

Not fun going down I95

If you can, change to the round or flat slides. (CV?)
You also can add a position indicator to them.
As they are mechanical, any slide pot would work.

Just my $0.02
