Kent,
I think what most folks do is just replace it. Your dealer should have a couple of different styles to chose from. I usually put the pointed cone tipped ones back on. They hook up easier. If you use them a lot, do like I do and put a extra on the shelf for next time.
Yeah I know it seems that important question that we have that don't get the responses that we would like is upsetting but I would say that generally most DO get good replies. Shoot I liked the first couple that you got in your post actually. Anywoooo hope you find you prob and get her fixed.
