Good Day Ken,

I've always used model airplane fuel line tubing...

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

This got me thinking, and I measured two ordinary things that were a close match.

First was a Q-Tip stick, which had an inisde diameter of 1.8mm, and outside diameter of about 3mm.

The second thing I measured was a plastic ink cartridge tube out of a ball-point pen. It was right on at 1.6mm inside diameter, but was still 3mm on the outside.

You might be able to squeeze one on...cheap fix anyways.
