Question Replacement parts for mini carlisle?

Hi everyone! I have been using a mini carlisle cc for over 4 yrs. now and I love it. About a week ago I noticed that the oxygen knob was starting to turn stiffly. Now yesterday, the knob was so stiff that I couldn't shut it all the way off. I am wondering if I can get a replacement part for it somewhere or am I going to have to buy a new torch? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. Patti

My DH frequently fixed this for me before I switched from the MiniCC to the Cricket. I'm not 100% sure what he does but I can ask me this evening if you haven't figured it out. I either saw how to do it in the instructions I got with the torch or it was in a thread on Wet Canvas. He fixed it the 1st time a few years ago and now whenever it happens, it just takes him a minute or two to do. A call to Carlisle would probably be the fastest thing but it is a simple screwdriver fix so you don't need to worry about sending the torch anywhere or replacing it.
