I tried searching but couldn't find anything on it. I have Pin-lock kegs, and on one of them the CO2 post has one of the pins that is slightly loose, as in it wobbles slightly. I wouldn't think it as much of a problem, but the connector doesn't get a good enough seat, so there is a slight leak whenever I have a connector attached.

Seeing as replacement posts are almost the same price as getting an entirely new keg I don't think I will be going that route. What are my options for this keg? Is there any way to repair it, or should I just try and repurpose the keg for something other than dispensing of beer?
