That looks like it should do trick, but it looks like it would be coming from China, and therefore probably take weeks to get here, if not longer. I was hoping to get this fixed within a few days.

I am suprised broom stick did not work . Makes me wonder if something else is not cool down there . I always use my 3/8 air impact tool to spin those bolts off and on . FYI always start them by hand prior tightening . The fast action of the air impact seats them properly everytime for me . If I was you I would take them apart again and thread bolt into assembly and see if threads are messed up. Worse case a tap will have to be chased through threads to clean them up. Again , wish all you guys with issues lived closer . I have 4 decades of tool collecting that likes to be kept shiny from use. Heck I got tools I forgot I even have here . When I get to know ya all better I got no problem shipping them to loan out for shipping costs .

I got another thought ...
Take cap off and install like 4-5 nickels under cap to force spring down more to apply more pressure to retainer so it can be tightened up. It will require more force to thread cap on . But this should do the trick . Afterwards take out nickels and spend wisely
If this does not work , for sure take apart and thread bolt in peice and see what's wrong .
PM me for email as than I can send pix of examples , heck I would tear mine apart to show ya what's what . Been doing this my entire life on those planet

Best of luck.
