Increase the spring tension on both the G# key and lever so it will still open and close when operated by the LH pinkie and to make it more reliable. Don't overdo it or you'll break the springs or have a G# key that won't close if the springs aren't balanced correctly - the G# lever (LH pinky) should have the stronger spring tension to control the opening and closing of the G# pad cup.
