If the lever goes past center then it is not a question of bite .It is a question of the lever work being worn so that it dose not "stop" in the correct place . Depending on the actual construction of the lever work will depend on what needs doing to correct it . There is no one size fits all answer to this , and without stripping the thing down and examining it to ascertain the cause and the solution all else is conjecture and guessing .

Gunman has a point. The spindle projection which moves the bolt may be the worn part. Which brings up the design of the top lever in general. It is obviously unergonomic (try one handed opening of a top lever) and unnecessarily complitated compared to a side pedal, underlever, Ljutic slide or the Horsley thumb slide. But mental inertia rules and all guns have top levers.
