Remove the shaft, clean it well, then measure it with a micrometer. They tend to wear oval, with most wear on the side bearing the most tension from the accelerator spring. Apply flux and butter on a thin coat of solder to the worn side. Use a fine file to shape it to a just-to-tight fit then finish fit it with sand paper.
Or, you can buy a new one from Bratton's for $22.
